I Met a Stranger

Can't control the tears
Couldn't face my fears
Didn't know why I wanted to disappear
Drowning in my feelings cause I felt a little sick
At the thought of things

Watch the car pull up
Opened and saw love
Thought I felt undeserving and pitiful
He invited me inside to talk about my life
Said I wasn't right

Because I didn't know who it was
But he was happy just because
He didn't care, cause he just was himself
I met a stranger and he was himself

He was laughing hard
Reaching for the stars
Said he still had insecurities at heart
But now he didn't let them rule his world anymore
They were not the core

And I woke up in the morning in a pool of sweat
Cause I recognized the person that I met
But he made it in my dream, had me looking at the seams
Told me, "burst them," and I know what that means

Because I didn't know who it was
But he was happy just because
He didn't care, cause he just was himself
I met a stranger and he was himself

I met a stranger, ahh
I met a stranger, ahh
I met a stranger and he was himself
I met a stranger and he was myself

There's lots of people who see something in my eyes
What part of the recognition don't I recognize?

I met a stranger, ahh
I met a stranger, ahh
I met a stranger and he was himself
I met a stranger and he was myself

I met a stranger, ahh
I met a stranger, ahh
I met a stranger and he was himself
I met a stranger and he was myself
