Strange Friend - Dirk Hamilton


    I've been down but still I'm hangin' in
    Played the clown with a belly full of gin
    Tossed around and bitten by the wind
    I cooked inside my skin, then I began again

    On a night that lasted like a year
    Torn apart, I looked into a mirror
    and a smile that changed into a leer
    said "Look what we have here!"
    and I curled up in fear

    Strange Friend Friendly Stranger
    live in danger friendly stranger feed your anger
    Strange Friend constant changer
    live in danger friendly stranger free your anger

    And you know that I've searched for
    the girl with sparkler eyes
    and it had to be her, no cozy compromise
    but ya' know that the girl, I've come to realize
    she was just a thin disguise for the friend
    that I denied

    Sometimes I wake up
    and I don't even know my own name
    But I recognize the throbbing
    of an old familiar pain
    For what mankind has done I feel ashamed
    It ain't my fault, but I only have myself to blame

    Strange Friend Friendly Stranger
    live in danger friendly stranger feed your anger
    Begin again constant changer
    live in danger friendly stranger free your anger
    Strange Friend constant changer rearranger
    see it feel it free it begin again
