Stranger To Myself Lyrics - Billy Squier

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

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
