Sitting With a Stranger

Sitting with a stranger

Just about to lose my mind

When you decide the time's not right

And leave me way behind

Sitting with a warrior

Taking all the punches thrown

A shallow grave is made for you

If you're gonna take on the world on your own

'Cause if this love is our home

Then why am I always trying to break down the walls?

And as long as there are places in your mind

I'm not allowed to go

I'll be sitting with a stranger

Trying to keep it together

Swimming around you, holding my breath

Waiting for a change in the weather

Put up a fight

I can't scream into the dark

Or be sitting with a stranger my whole life through

When I could be with you

'Cause if this love is our home

Then why am I always trying to break down the walls?

And as long as there are places in your mind

I'm not allowed to go

In love in a desert

Will always be wondering what it's missing out on

And peace in infested waters

Can never make itself at home

So come on

'Cause if this love is our home

Then why am I always trying to break down the walls?
