People are Strange Lyrics

Was I lost?

Was there something awful?

Is there a world inside every seashell?

And did it cost all that you learnt

To break apart the plastic surface?

People are strange, people are strange

Was I lost?

Were you always sordid?

Would you question your only daughter?

And would you let her tear apart

This retrospective nightmare in reverse?

People are strange, people are strange

Was I lost when I left my body

In the dust of the moonlit study?

And were you you really working late

When they rang and said they'd found me?

People are strange, people are strange

And was I lost at your fathers funeral?

drying blood stained the the toilet walls.

And will I always keep a copy

Of the bible by my bedside just in case?

People are strange, people are strange

Please open your eyes

Please open your eyes, please open your eyes

People are strange, people are strange

Was I lost when you left me waiting?

All alone when you left me waiting

All alone when you left me waiting

All alone when you left me waiting

People are strange, people are strange

Was I lost when you left me waiting?

All alone when you left me waiting

All alone when you left me waiting

All alone when you left me

I am holding on
