You spend a hundred dollar bill as if it were a dime Seem so debonair while you sip your wine Brag about your escapades, to impress your best friend's wife Cos love remains a stranger in your life You try to cure your loneliness with expensive luxuries Your sense of values have been driven to their knees A chauffeur and a limousine, you're a rich man poor at heart Cos love remains a stranger in the dark Love remains a stranger Loneliness comes screaming from your eyes The truth, it hurts so bad you resolve to telling lies Cos love remains a stranger from the skies Love remains a stranger Love remains a stranger You spoke of having a woman once and how you made her bleed You're so into yourself you ignored her every need Oh, she bent over backwards to keep you but your ego made her crawl She left with a lonely stranger through it all Love remains a stranger Loneliness comes screaming from your eyes The truth, it hurts so bad you resolve to telling lies Cos love remains a stranger in disguise Love remains a stranger Love remains a stranger

Where'd you go Our apartment feels so empty And i miss seeing your clothes On the floor I wanna know Were you gone before you left me Was she yours before you ever You closed the door What does she have that I don't What does she do that I won't It's the thought of your arms holding her That hurts the most I used to believe in forever Now it's over over Saw you & me together Now you're pulling her closer I see the way she makes you high but I can't even hate her I'd rather die a millions times to watch you love a stranger You're different now You're staying at night and You're the life of the party All for her Tell me how I still leave the light on In case you find your way (Back) to what we were What do you want that i'm not What is that thing that shes got These questions set my mind on fire Can't make 'em stop

Will you let me in Or take it away? Let me choose you again Tomorrow is a night away If love's looking down On all that we do We're a provocative pair Me and you Love's a stranger Until I see you again Love's a stranger Until I see you again And we want to know how far that it can bend We just want to know how far that it can bend They say it's naive How we're passing by Trying to look The entire world right in the eye If angels decide Will they let us be? 'Cause we're provocative, babe You and me Love's a stranger Until I see you again Love's a stranger Until I see you again And we want to know how far that it can bend We just want to know how far that it can bend Yeah, it's so hard to possess It's a beautiful mess Time after time It's so hard to possess It's a beautiful mess Time after time Oh, girl you're so hard to possess But such a beautiful mess Time after time Oh, so hard to possess We're a beautiful mess Time after time Now you sing it, girl Love's a stranger Until I see you again Love's a stranger Until I see you again We want to know how far that it can bend We want to know how far that it can bend Love's a stranger Until I see you again Love's a stranger Until I see you again We just want to know how far that it can bend We want to know how far that it can bend

I'm in denial Of my surroundings. They're ancient ruins — Or so they became When I shut the world out To reach for something Beyond the walls that I built to keep safe. My hope is bare; I think I need to Take a step back and Fill my lungs with air And try to resuscitate The man that died inside To see if he is worth saving. Am I a victim of my own mind? I'm tearing these walls down daily; I'm breaking them bit by bit. My feet and my hands take a beating, As I fight to let daylight in. It's up to you if you want to end the suffering And pick your feet up when you feel you're at your end. It doesn't matter if it leads to nothing; At least you tried to make it right again. It's up to you but you still need to learn to breathe And just take a step back before you fall to your knees. And don't stop the fight to find your daylight. You won't be the victim of your own mind! My hope is bare; I think I need to Take a step back and Fill my lungs with air And try to resuscitate The man that died inside To see if he is worth saving. Am I a victim of my own mind? Am I a victim of my own mind? Am I a victim of my own...

The day that I met you I started dreaming Now I write 'em down if I remember in the morning time I don't know that much about Kingston But I like the sound it makes when it starts pouring rain I think that tonight I'll leave my light on 'Cause I get lonely when it's out and I miss you right about now Baby tell me where you want to go Baby tell me what you want to know Give you everything I have and more He said baby, that's what he called me, I love you Every single word you say makes me feel some type of way It's the thought of you that slightly scares me But it takes my breath away, forget what I was gonna say The day that I met you I started dreaming Now I write 'em down if I remember in the morning time Baby tell me where you want to go Baby tell me what you want to know Give you everything I have and more Baby tell me where you want to go Baby tell me what you want to know Give you everything I have and more Baby tell me where you want to go Baby tell me what you want to know Give you everything I have and more

I've got a box of memories under my bed And when I take it out it messes with my head Covered in the thickest coat of dust You taste it when it opens up Sometimes when I get lonely I dive deep inside Dig through the polaroids and letters that I hide From myself cause it's so hard to see The things that once held all of me And ooh Still got your picture Torn in two But I just can't throw away You So I keep your memory in my room Still got my ticket from the first movie we saw With all our friends How are they? 'Cause I don't know at all Haven't seen them since 2013 But they're in my box of memories And ooh That ring is still as good as New But It's at the bottom 'cause of You And it stays in my Room with all the rest of these recollections I know they're dead but they ain't in heaven No they ain't in heaven Try to find any one good exception I know I can but where have they been Where have they been I've got a box of memories under my bed And when I take it out it messes with my head But I do it anyways So it all stays
