Stranger

Beborn Beton


Many different faces, many bodies walking by 
Beautiful and smooth and so young when they die 
Soon they will be forgotten and won't ever be seen again 
Sometimes you keep them in your mind 

Some may be appealing and some other may be not 
There are so many they vary from unacceptable to hot 
You'll never get to know them, you never will recall their names 
You call it sad, but you don't mind 

Some are straight and settled in the daylight 
Smear face when the rain pours down 
I remember the words of the stranger: 
Live fast and you die with a sound 

So that's the story that's the way it has to be 
Unless you change your fulsome attitude 
release your vanity 
For we are only mortal 
and on the day the curtain falls 
You'll see me laughing all the time 

Some are straight and settled in the daylight 
Smear face when the rain pours down 
I remember the words of the stranger: 
Live fast and you die with a sound
