Strangers Lyrics

Paths cross then fade away

From the break of dawn until the end of day

You wielded power, you held sway

I prepared for myself this nest in which I lay

I know I won't be hearing

The truth from you

But the shadow you casted

Is one that I see through

You claimed friendship for eternity

Through south of heaven and north of hell

Miserable chains which I break

Realizing how much was at stake

I can't believe I've forgiven so much

But I never forgot

I don't understand the game that you play

But what hurts most are the words withheld

Time has made us strangers

I can't find the words to say to you

It took a while but I am finally through

So go ahead and dig your own grave

From me you'll receive crocodile tears

I know my love is what you crave

But you've sown the seeds for your own fears

Go ahead, make me disposable

You know without you I feel invisible?

You cannot replace me

But I have the power to erase thee

Time has made us strangers

I can't find the words to say to you

It took a while but I am finally through

Time has made us strangers

Old relations some say are eternal

But your treatment wasn't always fraternal

You won't discourage me anymore

I'm made of stone

This isolation I've come to condone

I'm frozen to the bone

Once I forgive you, twice I'm sceptical

Third time you free me, fourth time unreasonable

You try to play me like a pawn in chess

Amusingly it served for your last caress

So go ahead and dig your own grave

From me you'll receive crocodile tears

You say my company is what you crave

But you have planted the seeds for your own fears

Go ahead, make me disposable

You know without you I feel invisible?

You cannot replace me

But I have the power to erase thee

Time has made us strangers

I can't find the words to say to you

It took a while but I am finally through

Time has made us strangers

Old relations some say are eternal

But your treatment wasn't always fraternal
