Strangers
Embracing Hope: Navigating Time and Faces in Sneaky Bones' 'Strangers'
Lyrics
Hope
is all it takes
Hope is all it takes
a little hope that the past is the past
A little hope that the past is the past
and the future is what we await
And the future is what we await
time
Time
it will pick you up
It will pick you up
get you excited like when you were a kid
Get you excited like when you were a kid
and your heart couldn't handle the heavy stuff
And your heart couldn't handle the heavy stuff
stuck on the same thing
Stuck on the same thing
can't see whats in front of my face
Can't see what's in front of my face
but i'm picturing you
But I'm picturing you
everyone is changing
Everyone is changing
i'm standing in the same place
I'm standing in the same place
faded as the picture of you
Faded as the picture of you
take
Take
something i recall
Something I recall
tell the story a thousand times
Tell the story a thousand times
till it's nothing like what happened at all
Till it's nothing like what happened at all
Fond
of the future tense
Of the future tense
so nostalgic for things that haven't happened
So nostalgic for things that haven't happened
i see strangers i know i've already met
I see strangers I know I've already met
face
Face
faces in a crowd
Faces in a crowd
only seem to be a slight variation
Only seem to be a slight variation
in the simulation we call the now
In the simulation we call the now
eyes
Eyes
strain not to stare
Strain not to stare
break for a moment but we both come back
Break for a moment but we both come back
to a vague memory we already share
To a vague memory we already share
