Beckah Amani - Stranger

It feels like there's a thousand rocks tied to my feet
The air I breathe in is as thick as bricks
I try to run but the tide pulls me back in
The memories are bittersweet
They make my fingers bleed
And my heart numb

I thought that I could save you
You thought that you could fix me
We thought that we'd be soaring high
We'd touch the clouds and dance
Under moon light skies and heavenly lights

I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
To think you're somewhere in this world carrying a bag
Full of my insecurities
My guilt and shame
To think I told my bestfriend
Now you're a stranger carrying my secrets ohh

It feels like you're in a castle and I'm under siege
You throw lilies like a critic trying to warn me
I try to run but I'm tied to what could have been
The memories are bittersweet
They turn into daffodils and they dry out

I thought that I could save you
You thought that you could fix me
We thought that we'd be soaring high
Touch the clouds and dance
Under moon light skies and heavenly lights

I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
To think you're somewhere in this world carrying a bag
Full of my insecurities
My guilt and shame
To think I told my bestfriend
Now you're a stranger carrying my secrets ohh

You're a stranger
You're a stranger
You're a stranger
You're a stranger
You're a stranger
You're a stranger
It feels like there's a thousand rocks tied to my feet
The air I breathe in is as thick as bricks
