Stranger Than You
Embracing Unconventional Identity: Stranger Than You
Lyrics
Are you sitting on the edge of your seat?
Asking if the listener is eagerly anticipating or anxious about something.
Living by the skin of your teeth
Living on the edge or facing challenges narrowly, with a sense of difficulty.
If you keep prying, you might burn a hole
Warning about the consequences of prying too much, suggesting it may lead to negative outcomes.
Is it all that occupies your mind?
Questioning if a particular issue dominates the listener's thoughts.
In a circle that you hide behind
Describing a repetitive and closed-off pattern of behavior or thinking.
Well, yeah, maybe I’m a little bit stranger than you, darling
Admitting to being a bit unusual or different than the listener, possibly in a positive or unique way.
Maybe I’m a little bit stranger than you, darling
-Maybe I’m a little bit stranger than you, darling
-Each and everyday, walk into the fight
Referring to facing challenges or conflicts on a daily basis.
You push me just to see if I bite
Accusing someone of provoking a reaction, testing boundaries.
But I’m not rising while I’m in control
Asserting control and not allowing oneself to be provoked or manipulated easily.
Suppose I’ll never really understand
Expressing a lack of understanding regarding the desire to assert dominance.
The need to be the alpha man
Reflecting on the perceived need to be the dominant or leading figure.
Well, yeah, maybe I’m a little bit stranger than you, darling
Reiterating the acknowledgment of being somewhat different from the listener.
Maybe I’m a little bit stranger than you, darling
-Maybe I’m a little bit stranger than you, darling
-Maybe I’m a little bit stranger than you, darling
-Maybe I’m a little bit stranger than you, darling
-Don’t know I see you there
Noticing the listener and describing their actions, possibly in a casual setting.
You run your fingers through your hair
Describing a common gesture, possibly indicating contemplation or frustration.
But the news is always the same
Highlighting a repetitive or unchanging aspect of the listener's life.
And maybe I’m a little bit strange
Reiterating a self-aware acknowledgment of being a bit peculiar.
Maybe I’m a little bit stranger than you, darling
Repeating the idea of being somewhat different from the listener.
Maybe I’m a little bit stranger than you, darling
-Maybe I’m a little bit stranger than you, darling
-Maybe I’m a little bit stranger than you, darling
Repeating the acknowledgment of being a bit strange or unusual.
