Voli Contra - Strangers lyrics

Look at this picture of my college friends
Thinking will I ever see this time again?
Simple life
Back when it was all so promising
Now my cell phone is getting cobwebs
No longer relate
Because they speak another dialect
Drink a little scotch for the demons
Hoping maybe it can fight em off
Exorcise (exercise) em on the track, runnin thru the writer’s block
Seem like my faith in
Humanity’s been replaced
With cynicism, lately my sanity isn’t safe
Oh lord, hey look a stranger’s in the mirror
I’m nothing like I used to look
This pain is unfamiliar
Obsession, cuz I see a
Vision others prolly can’t
I feel it in my blood
But, I hope it’s not in vein (vain)
Nah nah, now all I see is strangers
Mama taught me, never talk to em
See the dangers never open up, build a wall
Never take it down
Maybe I just wanna see who cares
Enough to break it down

Strangers alone, strangers at home
Caught between love and hate
Can you hear my call?
Can you hear my call, can you hear my call
My call, my call

Does no one understand this? I guess
I speak a foreign language
I took a look at what was family
All I saw was strangers
All full of strangers

Nouveau
Don’t take it personal, it’s human nature
You see your dreams severely shot
They call that euthanasia my lesser equals
Acquaintances of a different cloth
Degrade themselves on the daily
I took a different course
And put my heart thru this fire for my desire
And I swear I’ll never burn out
Like my peers that never turned out
To be kings, only jesters
Couldn’t bring it under pressure
So they piggyback their brother
Benefit from his successes
Taste the venom on my tongue, so bitter
Look in the mirror
Then reflect on how I’m slowly disappearing
And the one thing that I know
Is that I really know nuthin
I’m waitin for this relationship with
My dream to go public
For now, I’m socially awkward, forgot
How to be human, where’s my decency
I’m lyin to myself so how the
Fuck can you believe in me?
I lost my savings, no register
You can’t change him
No emotional return when you
Invested in a stranger

I fear the best days behind me
Not sayin I’m suicidal
But Voli continues to try to
Kill himself on the vinyl
I’m prolly a model for what not
To do with your life
I’m isolated, no room for no god or satan
I got my own religion, I’m godforsaken
Pushin to get my shit out, I’m constipated
I’m out of use
Can you feel me? Be my masseuse
Massage me, life is a bitch
So misogyny is my truth
Move through the shadows
My girl is looking for light
And she’s dealing with her condition, she’s
Used to a losing battle, fuck
We both obsessive, her OCD is a blessing
Funny what makes us lonely’s the
Shit that holds us together
We try to sleep through the failure
Can’t propose to her till I become the man
And I can’t settle for no
City hall marriage, girl
I hope ya understand
Just tell the priest that I sold
My soul to the devil
And I hope to give him change
After that we’ll hold a wedding
But my side of the aisle’ll be vacant
The life of a stranger nobody knows him
Will his grave title be nameless?
Hold me, as I sit and look for the old me
In 50 years
Will I be considered the biggest
Regret of the old me?
