lyrics

Strange One
(Evans)

Can’t understand you
You’re always Black or White
Running or crawling
You’ve got chaos on your mind

You’re such a Strange One
You don’t like attention, but you
Can’t stand rejection, well
You’re strange
You’re gone

Sometimes in the dead of night
Silence too much to bear
You stalk shadows in your room
And you scream when no-one can hear

You’re such a Strange One
You don’t like attention, but you
Can’t stand rejection, well
You’re strange
You’re gone

You’re such a Strange One
You’re all screwed up, you don’t know how to feel
It’s a bad situation
And all you can do is shout and abuse
You don’t like what you hear
You don’t like what you see
You just slither around
And it’s all misery
Living your life in the depths of despair
And it’s coming all over again

Sometimes in the dead of night
Silence too much to bear
You stalk shadows in your room
And you scream when no-one can hear

You’re such a Strange One
You don’t like attention, but you
Can’t stand rejection, well
You’re strange
You’re gone

You don’t like what you hear
You don’t like what you see
You just slither around
And it’s all misery
Living your life in the depths of despair
And it’s coming all over again
