Billy Squier Stranger To Myself song lyrics

Stranger, stranger...

I... don't know where I'm goin'

But what I'm leavin' behind... I already know

Run... the streets have no ending

But what I'm hopin' to find... I just can't ignore

I live to be strong... I want to be king

But I act so unwise--look how foolish I've been

When time after time... I try to be me

But I look down inside--it's the stranger I see

Stranger, stranger... stranger to myself

I was born on the other side of life

I'm just a stranger... stranger to myself

Never thought I'd ever cry

Never thought we'd ever be denied

Stranger to myself...

Why... are my thoughts so uncertain

Will I ever unwind... this damage I've done

Love--It's a fight--it's your life--it's not over

Can you look at me now... and show me I'm wrong

For once in my life... I want to be good

But I'm playin' the bad boy... much more than I should

When time after time... I try to explain

Those voices inside... they're callin' out again

Stranger, stranger... stranger to myself

I was born on the other side of life

I'm just a stranger... stranger to myself

Who'd have thought we'd ever hide

Who'd have thought we'd ever be denied

Now don't ask me why... I don't really know

But sure as I'm breathin' I've got to let it go

The eyes of a man... see the world of a child

The door it lies open--won't you step inside and see the

Stranger... stranger to myself

I was born on the other side of life

I'm just a stranger... stranger to myself

Who's to fall if you won't try

Who's to fall if you won't try... you won't try... you don't wanna try

Stranger to myself
