Would I be lying if I said I'm better on my own?
I'm still a little fucked, and overly emotional
I took a trip to Rome, but didn't help at all
That place I once called home, now doesn't feel like home at all
Criminal, you took all control
Left me so empty on a different level
And it's hard, you know, to enjoy the show
When I see our faces in the middle
But now I burn this love, and we go back to strangers
I know I'm strong enough 'cause I've been through the phases
So don't be coming back 'cause now you're just a stranger, stranger, stranger, ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, strangers
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, strangers
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, strangers, strangers, oh yeah
Would I be lying if I said I don't miss you at all?
If I saw you at the party, would I even care to talk?
Yeah, I just know myself (I do)
I'd be cold as hell (uh-huh)
I'd take our memories, and place them on the bottom shelf
Criminal, you took all control
Left me so empty on a different level
And it's hard, you know, to enjoy the show
When I see our faces in the middle
But now I burn this love, and we go back to strangers
(And we know) I know I'm strong enough 'cause I've been through the phases (oh)
So don't be coming back 'cause now you're just a stranger, stranger, stranger, ooh
But now I burn this love, and we go back to strangers
I know I'm strong enough 'cause I've been through the phases (oh)
So don't be coming back
(Don't be coming back) 'cause now you're just a stranger, stranger, stranger, ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, strangers
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, strangers
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, strangers, strangers, oh yeah
But now I burn this love, and we go back to strangers
I know I'm strong enough 'cause I've been through the phases
So don't be coming back 'cause now you're just a stranger, stranger, stranger
Ooh
