This ain't a simple message, with a catchy refrain
Not here for your amusement or just to entertain
Don't feel the need to create something entirely new
Don't want to expound on the Universal Truth
Just a moment, actualized, where we know
We truly know that we're not strangers
When I walk away from you
After we've exchanged more than a word or two
I realize there's been no understanding
We're still strangers, just strangers
Don't hesitate, articulate, any thoughts you have
Promise to comply, to try and do the same
To realize that moment, where we both know
We truly know that we're not strangers
And every time...
And every time...
I want to kick myself for shutting down. I shut down
We play it safe, we mouth the lines
We play it safe, we mouth the lines
Quite satisfied, we serve our time
I resented you when you could not hear
My silent disapproval or my silent pleas
But I realize there's been no understanding
We're still strangers, just strangers
Don't feel the need to create something entirely new
Don't want to expound on the Universal Truth
Just a moment, actualized, where we know
We truly know that we're not strangers
I truly know
And every time...
I want to kick myself for shutting down. I shut down
I play it safe, I mouth the lines
I play it safe, I cut the lines
Quite satisfied, I do my time
I DO...I DO, DO MY LINES
