The late show is over
And the city's half asleep
And I'm lost in a world
That's just too cold, too cold and deep.
I've turned so many ways
And I'm spinning like a top
I wish that I could get off
Or that the world, that the world would stop.
CHORUS:
I'm a stranger and afraid
I'm a stranger and afraid
I'm a stranger and afraid
In a world I never made.
I'm always chasing dragons
With a sword that's made of tin
And I know in my soul
There's no way that I can win.
I try, oh, how I try
But there's no place, no place to go
There's no one here who knows me
And no one here I know.
