JUSTIN TOWNES EARLE
"Wanna Be A Stranger"

Don't wanna walk away but
I'm tired of acting in anger
Too tired to even try
I just wanna be a stranger
Asked my baby did she love me
She said, "Ask me later"
Didn't even say goodbye now
I just wanna be a stranger
When I was young I'd drink
My whiskey straight, no chaser
That didn't drown the pain
I just wanna be a stranger
I need a place to hide
Until I do I'm in danger
Maybe in another time
I could've been a stranger
Now I've been running all my life
I could've been a master of disguise
Looking for another geographic change
Standing at the station waiting for the rain
No my heart didn't break
It tore in two like paper
Not even shadows can hide
In the eyes of a stranger
In the eyes of a stranger
