| When I left home
|
| I didn’t mean to leave you all on your own
|
| But even in a large crowd of people
|
| I can’t help but feel all alone
|
| So I deleted your number on purpose
|
| I figured you didn’t want me to call
|
| And over time, on the surface
|
| I can act like I feel nothing at all
|
| I’m sorry that I ran but I got scared
|
| And when you needed me I know I wasn’t there
|
| I wasn’t gonna let myself hold you down
|
| And you don’t need a man like me around
|
| You say you know who I am
|
| But I don’t think that you can
|
| I am a stranger
|
| In a place that I once called home
|
| I am a stranger
|
| And I’m not welcome anymore
|
| To my old neighborhood
|
| Where I think I was always misunderstood
|
| I tried so hard to get along
|
| I swear I tried as hard as I could
|
| But I just felt like I couldn’t breathe
|
| And it’s old and it is still haunting me
|
| There was something that I didn’t see
|
| That all along, you had something that I need
|
| I’m sorry that I ran but I got scared
|
| And when you needed me I know I wasn’t there
|
| I wasn’t gonna let myself hold you down
|
| And you don’t need a man like me around
|
| You say you know who I am
|
| I don’t think that you can
|
| I am a stranger
|
| In a place that I once called home
|
| I am a stranger
|
| And I’m not welcome anymore
|
| And I’m not welcome anymore
|
| And I’m not welcome anymore
|
| And I’m not welcome
|
| I’m sorry that I ran but I got scared
|
| And when you needed me I know I wasn’t there
|
| I wasn’t gonna let myself hold you down
|
| And you don’t need a man like me around
|
| You say you know who I am
|
| But I don’t think that you can
|
| I am a stranger
|
| In a place that I once called home
|
| I am a stranger
|
| And I’m not welcome anymore
|
| And I’m not welcome anymore
|
| And I’m not welcome |
