Dear Stranger Lyrics

Sweet mother, get me forever
Alone and safe in a room
Why would I ask for anything other
Your world is all that I ever knew

Her hands pulled me closer
Her eyes all iffy and cold
Oh, she said I keep you from danger
Oh, won't you care for me right now?

All of these voices are making me nervous
Follow the mountainside, leave it with nothing
Under the surface, I am a stranger
Nowhere else do we go
Nowhere else do we go

The last time, you told me it simple
I keep it in the back of my mind
Oh, she said, now don't be a stranger
Oh, just keep your head on your shoulders

All of these voices are making me nervous
Follow the mountainside, leave it with nothing
Under the surface, I am a stranger
Nowhere else do we go
Nowhere else do we go
