A Stranger to Myself
Navigating Inner Turmoil: A Stranger to Myself by Television Personalities
Lyrics
I'm a danger to myself
I pose a threat to my own well-being
And I won't deny it's true
I won't deny that this statement is accurate
And in the stillness of the night
In the quiet moments of the night
I feel so troubled through and through
I feel deeply disturbed or distressed
And I know I have to change
I am aware that I need to make a change
But it's easier said than done
However, implementing this change is challenging
And after all nobody said that life had to be fun
Life is not necessarily meant to be enjoyable
But if I close my mind
If I close myself off from the world
To the world outside
But I cannot ignore the pain within
But I can't close my mind to the pain inside
Despite closing off to the world, internal pain persists
But if I close my mind
Closing my mind helps
I can close my eyes
I can shut my eyes to avoid confronting pain
To all the pain I feel
Avoiding the emotional pain I experience
But I'm a stranger to myself
I am unfamiliar and disconnected from my own identity
And to the ones that I hold dear
This detachment extends to the people I care about
And I feel so helpless every time I fall
I feel powerless every time I succumb to difficulties
And I know you find it hard
Recognizing that it's challenging for others to understand me
Trying to get inside my head
The difficulty of others comprehending my thoughts
Don't you think sometimes
Suggesting that others might find it equally challenging
It's just as bad for me
Implying that the situation is difficult for me as well
'Cause I'm a stranger to myself and I always will be
I am a stranger to myself, and this is an enduring condition
I'm a danger to myself
Reiterating the self-destructive nature
I'm a stranger to myself
Emphasizing the sense of being disconnected from oneself
