"Stranger" lyrics

"Stranger"

The mirror cracks with quiet laughter
Mocking eyes that do not blink, blink
Blink, blink
Truth dissolves in moments after
Hope drips slowly down the sink, sink
Sink, sink

The spine bends like a wilted question
The wounds are dressed in cold confession

Cold to cold and nothing more
A painful truth, a truth I can't restore
Cold to cold, the skin meets surface
A quiet grief so raw, so worthless

The child in me is still out crying
In a room I locked and sealed, sealed
Sealed, sealed
The adult hands keep on complying
Ignoring wounds that never ever healed
Healed, healed

I try to stand inside my frame
While a stranger calls me
Calls me by my name

Calls me by my name

Why is the stranger
In the mirror wearing my skin?
My skin, my skin
I wanna know!
I wanna know, do you see me?
Feels like the stranger doesn't need me
Yeah, the stranger doesn't need me

Every glance like a soft attack
Just like love that never loved back
Every glance like a soft attack
Just like love that never loved back

Cold to cold and nothing more
Truth, a truth I can't restore
Cold to cold, the skin meets surface
A quiet grief so raw, so worthless

Cold to cold and nothing more
A painful truth, a truth I can't restore

Cold to cold
Cold to cold, worthless
Cold to cold
Cold to cold
