The stranger

You won't reach out to me
No, not this time
When i need you the most
This helplessness is a stranger to me
So i'll just hold on and retreat into my core

And i am across the world today
And there was a time when
I would kill to come back
But it's been a while and i feel it's safe to say
That nothing is permanent but your memory

Now nothing's real to me
I've found the time to work through all of my wrongs
I was becoming a stranger to myself
But now i can see what really counts

And i am across the world today
And there was a time when
I would kill to come back
But it's been a while and i feel it's safe to say
That nothing is permanent but your memory

Dried blood on my hands
Here's to the boy who used up every chance
On nights that i miss you i'll keep to myself
And mingle with dreams ‘til they spit me back out
