Pallas Stranger
Stranger
A man that you must learn to hate
He takes the gravy from your plate
Without a word that's out of place
Lies black and white straight to your face
Stranger from a strange land
An empty smile That might mislead you for a while
The gentle words with which he speaks
And silent tears he sometimes weeps
All bear the traitor's mark and keep
You lost in verbal hide and seek
Stranger from a strange land
An empty smile That might mislead you for a while
The "lover's eyes"
Where only coldness lies
Betrays no sign
Of the poison in his mind
No matter what he says he feels
(Or what your feelings say)
You'll never find out what is real
(But does it matter anyway)
Stranger from a strange land
Can you find out the truth - it's near you
(It might mislead you for a while)
Stranger from a strange land
An empty smile That might mislead you for a while
Stranger from a strange land
Can you see through the lie?
Do you know who is who?
(It might mislead you for a while)
Stranger from a strange land
An empty smile That might mislead you for a while
