Stranger Than the Stranger on the Shore Squeeze

Acid casualties and angry young men
The litmus test of a guitar and pen
Revolve around date sheets and lost lonely rooms
And this is my home and I will leave soon

For a house with a tower
Where there's visiting hours
And the day leaves its taste on a spoon

Stranger than the stranger
Who walks by my bed
Shares in my life
Lives although dead
Stranger than the stranger I am sure
Stranger than the stranger on the shore

The black eye of the camera bruised by my blush
Leaves another chin and another hair cut
The image in focus the shot aims to kill
And I'm cropped at the waist as I run through the mill

So I'm lost for an encore
The kodachrome wants more
Now I'm framed with my head in the still

Stranger than the stranger
Who walks by my bed
Shares in my life
Lives although dead
Stranger than the stranger I am sure
Stranger than the stranger on the shore
