This story is true
But everything's changed
I've come back home
But it's not the same as it was
Before

When I lived here
I was a happy man
Those were happy times
I don't understand why I'm down
I'm a stranger in a strange town

These familiar streets
That I walk alone
Look nice and friendly but
There's something wrong with the scene
It's me

And every evening
As the shadows grow
All the dead people rise
You can watch them go round and round
If you're a stranger in a strange town

And if you see me, please don't look at my face
It's been a hard year, here in no place

Repeat first verse

If you see me, please don't look at my face
