lyrics

That just will not fly
Yet still we will try
Sets us apart
Not yet set in stone

I don't mean to raise my voice, something has pulled back the curtain
And now it's not a choice, not a dream, that much is certain
And now it's on the line, surely we can sense the danger
But it don't fit the crime, happens when we talk to strangers

Talk to strangers!

That just will not fly
Yet still we will try
Sets us apart
Not yet set in stone

I don't mean to raise my voice, something has pulled back the curtain
And now it's not a choice, not a dream, that much is certain
And now we're out of line, surely we can sense the danger
But it don't fit the crime, happens when we talk to strangers

Give it up, it's not enough to receive
You know we're gonna mess it up, best believe
It's not enough to give it up, just receive

I don't mean to raise my voice, something has pulled back the curtain
And now it's not a choice, not a dream, that much is certain
And now we're out of line, surely we can sense the danger
But it don't fit the crime, it happens when we talk to strangers (2x)

I try to be polite, not like they can tell the difference!
If I may, if I might, wish this from my sight, don't listen!
You don't want in this mind, another classic work of fiction!
Integrate, misalign, warm my heart from all the friction!
