An Old Stranger I Know

from It's So Dark And I'm Drunk by Ooni

/

lyrics

I was young once and I can't do it again
I will die and I will not see it coming
I may love you forever or I may forget
You may leave me as long as you come back again

I will promise you life in a world full of sin
I may dismiss what's sacred and scar my own skin
I may pray to a god that I don't believe in
But it will be out of fear that I'm wrong once again

If you have something to say, just let it all out
I don't know for how long I'll be hanging around

Cuz my mind doesn't stay still at all
And my heart has been riddled with loss
My own veins wont pump blood anymore
I am lost in a stranger I know

I am made up of oil, I am fossil fuel waste
I am built up of demons I can't put to rest
I am guilty and free, I have asked for my death
I don't know how to say that I'm thankful for this

I'm incapable of staying sober for long
I can't say I love you without losing my voice
I'm a product build up from the products I love
I am empty but ready for more

If I'm nothing to you, if I'm wasting my time
Give me now and give me something better to find

Cuz I'm done looking for a way out
I have seen hope in what I have found
And it took me a while to do
But I've given it all up to you

Time after time, I've wasted my years
Wasted my fire, and wasted my tears
But I'm working to try and change my old ways
I am better now than I was in the good days

And I'm sorry for what I may have done to you
I know I have damaged some things for the truth
But I would never have made it this far without you
Without you, I'm nothing without you

I have broken a promise to make it again
I fought my own war with the heart in my chest
All the hate that I had may have been put to rest
I may still have time but I have run out of breath
