what happened is this stranger
objecting these cursed giggles
mellow words confined a hater
closed the door on similar figures

don’t go away stranger
protect the world I portray

you and I alone, stranger
fold my dreams to a night of possibilities

what shall I name you, stranger?
a protector of another stranger
or a gentle soul ceasing danger
whether I show you my real nature
or you agree to become the painter
of lost fantasies belonging to a teenager

life decided to unite us
you will ride the lonely bus
so I can look into your eyes
dream of a life where you’re mine
