Stranger

Last night I slept with a stranger

For the first time, since you've gone

Regretfully lying naked, I reflect on what I've done

Her leg still forced inbetween mine, sticking to my skin

Stroking my chest and my hair, head resting below my chin

I'm a fox trapped in the headlights

and I'm waiting, for the tyres to spin over me

Cos everything I love has gone away

Oh, cos everything I love has gone away

Oh the dark night is moving slower, and sleep wont rescue me

Leaving me here to suffer, this shameful misery

So I long for a taste of freedom, or at least freedom from this bed

Silently picking up my clothes, I turn on my heels and I fled

And the dark of the street is no solace to me

Oh and I don't believe my conscience, will ever be clear again

Cos everything I love has gone away

Oh, cos everything I love has gone away

You know in a year, it's gonna be better

You know in a year, I'm gonna be happy
