Damaged goods Hopelessly lost My existence fading Too tired to fight Nothing left to cherish Complete surrender Hoping to suffocate my hardened heart I locked it away in a padded box Intentionally misplacing the key Then you appeared... Familiar stranger Remembered soul Such a perfect contradiction Strong and gentle Warm and cool A serious man and a playful child Rescued by your words Saved by your compassion You have awakened my emotions From their deepest sleep I breathe for you…I wait for you

Familiar Stranger
Damaged goods Hopelessly lost My existence fading Too tired to fight Nothing left to cherish Complete surrender Hoping to suffocate my hardened heart I locked it away in a padded box Intentionally misplacing the key Then you appeared... Familiar stranger Remembered soul Such a perfect contradiction Strong and gentle Warm and cool A serious man and a playful child Rescued by your words Saved by your compassion You have awakened my emotions From their deepest sleep I breathe for you…I wait for you
