Strange

I am from a people who don't understand each other

Everything I feel, no one understands

I cry, I scream... someone listens

Another lament, a rough child

I stay alone, disillusioned with the world

I turn off the lights and stay in the dark

I stop and wonder: what to do?

What they command, I don't wanna be

I never expect much from Him and I carry on

And even when I don't want to cry, I still feel it

Don't ever ask me to be silent. I will speak up

I don't wanna become a stranger, but I need to

I forget the sun, erase the memory

A journey into the book leaves me out there

I hear voices, they don't say the reason

I’ve never fit in

I open my eyes and still feel the wind

I don't believe He reads thoughts

And hope only leads me to believe

One day I'll find myself

I never expect much from Him and I carry on

And even when I don't want to cry, I still feel it

Don't ever ask me to be silent. I will speak up

I don't wanna become a stranger, but I need to

I think, I guess, I want, I need (I say)

I talk, I run, I cry, I stay (I pretend)

I fall, I hit, I dream, I scratch (I fight)

I sing, I dance, I play, I paint (I lie)
