Strangers to a Life

constrained by mind
 and tamed by thoughts
 afraid of getting maimed by
 feeling insecure
 and day by day it's harder to push on through
 these barriers and bars
 were built to last
 after all we're just the same
 seekers finders lovers liars
 strangers to a life
 finding out the reasons why
 you're the fuel i'm the fire
 counterparts in crime
 and strangers to a life
 maybe burnt but not devoured
 you feel the heat
 you'd ride the breeze
 but there's the concrete weight of
 failure on your feet
 and day by day it's harder to understand
 why there's so many dead-end streets
 in this maze
 after all we're just the same
 seekers finders lovers liars
 strangers to a life
 finding out the reasons why
 you're the fuel i'm the fire
 counterparts in crime
 and strangers to a life
 maybe burnt but not devoured
 you feel the heat
 but day by day it's getting harder to find a way
 to push on through and escape the maze
 feel the heat inside you
 break the barriers and bars
