Orange Goblin – The Stranger lyrics

I need to crack the earth right open
And throw myself into the abyss
I don't believe it's an addiction
But I know I like to kill like this

I've studied your kind
I've taken my time
I know stars can't shine without the dark

I can't follow rules
I don't suffer fools
I know there's no flame without a spark

I need to rip my heart wide open
To find out just what I have become
Some kind of mental introspection
Examine just why I feel so numb

I don't feel remorse
I need no recourse
The blood in my veins is cold as ice

A murderous mind
Two species entwined
The stranger forever lost in time

Twisted
In my visions
Overloaded
Lost control

Random
In my choices
No one follows
No one knows

There is beauty
In my violence
So malicious
So serene

There is method
In my madness
Calculated
Yet obscene

Twisted
In my visions
Overloaded
Lost control

Random
In my choices
No one follows
No one knows

There is beauty
In my violence
So malicious
So serene

There is method
In my madness
Calculated
Yet obscene

[Guitar solo]

I don't feel remorse
I need no recourse
The blood in my veins is cold as ice

A murderous mind
Two species entwined
The stranger forever lost in time

Stranger lost in time
Stranger lost his mind
Stranger lost in time
Stranger lost his mind
Stranger lost in time
Stranger lost his mind
Stranger lost in time
Stranger lost his mind
Stranger lost in time
Stranger lost his mind
Stranger lost in time
Stranger lost his mind
