Lyrics
Well hello friend
Expression of greeting or acknowledgment to someone considered a friend
Where you been
Asking about the whereabouts or experiences of the friend
Can look at me
Challenging the friend to make eye contact or face the speaker
Oh you mad
Noting the friend's anger or frustration
Forgot the good times we had
Reminding the friend of positive past experiences
Hello friend
Repeating the initial greeting to emphasize the connection
I hear your whispers, but you can't look me in the face
Acknowledging the friend's whispers or secret conversations, suggesting a lack of direct communication
You question the truth, but you're afraid to ask
Noticing the friend's hesitation to seek the truth directly
I'm staring right at you, but you're not what I see
Pointing out a discrepancy between appearance and true character
Just another weak coward full of deceit
Labeling the friend as a weak coward who is deceitful
Can't erase me
Asserting the speaker's lasting presence and impact
Can't erase your memories
Highlighting the persistence of memories, suggesting an indelible mark on the friend
I'm still here inside of you
Claiming a continued existence within the friend despite any attempts to forget
Hello friend
Repeating the friendly greeting, questioning the friend's absence
Where you been
Reiterating the inquiry about the friend's whereabouts
Can't look at me
Restating the challenge to make eye contact or face the speaker
Oh you mad
Observing the friend's continued anger or resentment
The stares roll off my back
Indicating resilience in the face of negative judgment
Well hello friend
Repeating the greeting, emphasizing the persistence of the connection
Can't erase me
Reaffirming the lasting impact on the friend's memories
Can't erase your memories
Stressing the inability to be forgotten, emphasizing an enduring presence
Why do you hide from me
Posing a question about the friend's avoidance or hiding
Another stranger
Introducing the concept of another stranger in the speaker's life
Another enemy
Referring to the new person as an enemy, suggesting a negative relationship
Another coward
Labeling the newcomer as a coward, predicting their downfall
I see you will fall
Anticipating the failure or downfall of the new acquaintance
Another soulless person in a crowded room
Describing the new person as soulless, emphasizing a lack of humanity
Another waste of life you have become
Condemning the new person as a waste of life
Can't run, can't hide
Emphasizing the impossibility of escape or hiding from judgment
So step up
Encouraging the new person to face the consequences of their actions
Another stranger
Repeating the idea of encountering another stranger, indicating a pattern
Another enemy
Reiterating the negative association with the new person as an enemy
What have you become
Prompting reflection on the transformation of the new person
Another stranger
Repeating the theme of encountering another stranger with negative connotations
Another enemy
Reiterating the negative relationship with the new person as an enemy
What have you become
Prompting reflection on the changes or degradation in the new person
You can't be seen with me
Highlighting a social separation or distancing due to perceived differences
Care about what they all think
Advising the friend to care less about others' opinions and judgments
I hope you learn to think before you speak
Encouraging the friend to think before speaking, emphasizing mindfulness
Another stranger
Repeating the theme of encountering another stranger with negative connotations
Another enemy
Reiterating the negative association with the new person as an enemy
I see right through you
Claiming insight into the true nature of the new person, seeing through their facade
