Stranger

Stranger

I turn my head to see him, I guess it's him or me
It's so different how they told me it wold be
I remember we were trained, it's so easy when you hate
But I wonder if he has a family
I know that you can see me, I feel you coming near
What made you into my enemy?
I am shaking, my vision starts to blur
I wonder if this will be my last day on earth

I feel a cold shadow coming down close
Right here beside me the silence explodes
For maybe the last time I cover my eyes

I've never been a hero, not even for one day
So why did God pick me out and leave me in this way
A couple of steps and a couple of thoughts
Not long enough to put right waht I have done wrong
That sound is so familiar, did he do it? was it me?
I see a thousand stars, I hear mankind scream

I feel cold shadow, coming down near
Right here beside me, plays with my fear
And for the last time I cover my eyes

I will do it better next time, but for now it's said and done
Lying here forgotten, scared and alone
To fight for a world where there is space for everyone
Take the chance to leave in peace and to have faith in what we are

The people I have loved, what did I do with my hate
The dreams that they dreamed right before we played fate
And for the first time I open my eyes
