Stranger Songtext
I trusted you
You said all the right things to me
All the words to make me believe, believe in you
You're not the man I hoped
The person I thought you were
God must have turned his back on a person like me
I'm no stranger to the pain
Trust is now my enemy
My dignity is now shame
You said all the right things to me
All the words to make me believe, believe in you
You're not the man I hoped
The person I thought you were
God must have turned his back on a person like me
I'm no stranger to the pain
Trust is now my enemy
My dignity is now shame
Promises can't make me stay
I'm no stranger to the pain
Your calloused hands examining my body
Now what makes you think it's alright with me
I'm too scared to breathe
And I keep lying there so motionless
Just praying God will interject and save me
Won't you save me
Oh I finally find the courage
Slowly muster up some words
That's enough from you and head to the other room
Then I slouch to the ground and barely make the slightest sound
And think of all the ways that I should kill you
I'm not stranger to the pain
Trust is now my enemy
My dignity is now shame
Promises can't make me stay
I'm no stranger to the pain
You say you have authority
But that doesn't mean a thing to me
I'm not the victim now
I'm not the victim now
You prey on the ones you say you love
Slander the name of God above
I'm not the victim now
I'm not the victim now
Carry the weight of all you've done
To these innocent ones
We're no the victims now
You're just a coward
Move past the scars you left
Lose every thought I've kept
I'm not the victims now
I'm not the victims now
You thought you could get way with this?
You thought you were powerful?
Well I've got news for you
You're just a fucking coward
You're no man of God
You're not called, you've never been
You're just a weak shell of a man
Who preyed on the ones you lead (led)
I'm no stranger to the pain
Your calloused hands examining my body
Now what makes you think it's alright with me
I'm too scared to breathe
And I keep lying there so motionless
Just praying God will interject and save me
Won't you save me
Oh I finally find the courage
Slowly muster up some words
That's enough from you and head to the other room
Then I slouch to the ground and barely make the slightest sound
And think of all the ways that I should kill you
I'm not stranger to the pain
Trust is now my enemy
My dignity is now shame
Promises can't make me stay
I'm no stranger to the pain
You say you have authority
But that doesn't mean a thing to me
I'm not the victim now
I'm not the victim now
You prey on the ones you say you love
Slander the name of God above
I'm not the victim now
I'm not the victim now
Carry the weight of all you've done
To these innocent ones
We're no the victims now
You're just a coward
Move past the scars you left
Lose every thought I've kept
I'm not the victims now
I'm not the victims now
You thought you could get way with this?
You thought you were powerful?
Well I've got news for you
You're just a fucking coward
You're no man of God
You're not called, you've never been
You're just a weak shell of a man
Who preyed on the ones you lead (led)
