Strangers Lyrics by Apes of the State

This City Isn’t Big Enough

2016

[Verse 1]
You know lately I've been thinking about some things
Like all the lovely friends I made in rehab
That I'll never see again
'Cause some of them are dead
And all the people that I've met
In bar bathrooms and in checkout lines
That I'll never see again
But in that moment, it was like we were best friends
Just having conversations
'Cause sometimes the people who don't know the things you've done
Are the only ones who will bother talking to you
Yeah, sometimes strangers are the best people to tell your secrets to
'Cause they don't know you
[Verse 2]
You know, lately I've been thinking about things I've lost
Like my mind, my heart, your baby blue eyes
And lately I've been wondering about things that haven't happened yet
Like if I'll ever feel that way again
But the past already happened, so I can't spend today
Digging through that shit
And the future hasn't happened yet, so there's no sense in worrying about it
Just living in this moment
[Bridge]
And today I wish that I could put new glasses on your eyes
So you could see the world the way I do through mine
'Cause then maybe you wouldn't wanna die
You wouldn't have to stick a needle in your arm just to survive
[Chorus 2]
'Cause I see myself in every single part of you, and I made it through
So I can't just sit back and watch you throw away your life
And I don't give a shit if I'm the last person on this earth who believes in you
I will show you how beautiful it is to be alive
And I will love you til you love yourself
I'll love you til you love yourself
I'll love you til you love yourself, I'll love you til you love yourself
I'll love you til you love yourself, I'll love you til you love yourself
I'll love you til you love yourself, I'll love you til you love yourself
I'll love you til you love yourself
And I will sing until I love myself
