The Kindness of Strangers Songtext
von Onward

Hello!
As you take a step back out of fear
It′s just a primal reaction
Wait!
Through the eyes of suspicious is clear
Why is it you don't trust me?

Gaze on a smile
That is sweet and so haunting
Fixed on a feeling
So wrong and attracting
Temptation rising, paralyzing,
I won′t do you harm


Gray is the hand!
Of an elderly figure,
Shaking and frail
A fa§ade of soul darkness
Weak is the eye!
To the passion of evil
Here we both stand
We are two perfect strangers
Into my mind!
Is the realm you shall ever discover
My truth or my unholy purpose
Please take my hand!
Take a chance for the first time
Have no fear to the kindness of strangers

Good-bye!
I see that you are preparing to leave
Is it with or without me?
Go! - to walk alone can be paradise
That in time you will fall from

Witness a tear
That can make you so happy
A safe distance
That could leave you so empty
Logistics rising, sterilizing
It will do you harm


Strong is the hand!
Of a young fighting soldier
Clear minded strong
A detractor of frailness
Strong is the eye!
To the passion of evil
Nothing will change
We are still perfect strangers
Out of my mind!
Is the place you will take me
To find all the lies
And discover true sadness
Let go of my hand!
Isolation now beckons
Fear I'll have
To the kindness of strangers

Together we shall be
Side by side we'll always walk alone
