Stranger in These Times Songtext
von Sum 41

I′m born of broken molds, don't ever think you′re like me
You're tied up in the past, the best has passed you by
I'm on a different plane, so watch yourself tread lightly
(Don′t expect me to understand you)
You better rid yourself of desperation

I′m feeling claustrophobic
Not sure if I can take it
Hoping no one knows it
That I'm just trying to fake it
I′m about to blow it
My feet and hands are shaking
I think that I'm about to tear this place apart

How long, how long will I pretend I′m fine
While I'm living this life? A stranger in these times
How long, how long ′til I can answer why
I'm gonna live and not die?
A stranger in these times


I'm bored of imbecilic morons, thank God it′s frightening
Your time is up, so I′ll just leave you all behind
'Cause nothing′s sacred, and I'm betting it′s not likely
(Never expect you to understand me)
That you could find yourself a new temptation

I'm feeling claustrophobic
Not sure if I can take it
Hoping no one knows it
That I′m just trying to fake it
I'm about to blow it
My feet and hands are shaking
I think I'm gonna have to tear this place apart

How long, how long will I pretend I′m fine
While I′m living this life? A stranger in these times
How long, how long 'til I can answer why
I′m gonna live and not die?
A stranger in these times

My insecurities are telling me to turn and walk away
They get the best of me, reality just slowly slips away

How long, how long will I pretend I'm fine
While I′m living this life? A stranger in these times
How long, how long 'til I can answer why
I′m gonna live and not die?
A stranger in these times
