A long time ago, when I had to leave

Been living in a world of make-believe

Now that I've found out, I'm like a stranger in my own town

Never get it back, all the time I lost

17 years of feeling double-crossed

Had to pay the price, and I did my time

It's my turn to live and put it all behind

It's now that I've found out, I'm like a stranger in my own town

Like a stranger

Lost a lot of friends

Some had to die

Life can slip away in the blink of an eye

It's now that I've found out, I'm like a stranger in my own town

Like a stranger

I'm like a stranger

Now that I've found out, I'm like a stranger in my own town
