[Verse 1]
Somebody’s been going through my things
Keys are on the kitchen table
Usually keep them in my nightstand
Maybe I’ve just had too much to drink
Lately I feel so unstable
All my friends say “you alright man?”
[Pre-Chorus]
Closing the doors, checking the locks, look out the window
Lie on the floor, calling the cops when I hear the wind blow
[Chorus]
When they kicked open the door I was hiding
And I came out with my hands in the air
I said “officer, someone’s inside”, and
When he turned on the light
It was just me standing there in the mirror
Guess I’m a stranger to myself
Guess I’m a stranger to myself
[Verse 2]
Lonely conversations trying to get to know the face that’s staring back at me
He almost feels familiar
And just when I thought I knew him
He disappeared from view and I’m afraid that I might be here with a killer
[Pre-Chorus]
Closing the doors, checking the locks, look out the window
Lie on the floor, calling the cops when I hear the wind blow
[Chorus]
When they kicked open the door I was hiding
And I came out with my hands in the air
I said “officer, someone’s inside”, and
When he turned on the light
It was just me standing there in the mirror
Guess I’m a stranger to myself
Guess I’m a stranger to myself
Somebody’s been going through my things
Keys are on the kitchen table
Usually keep them in my nightstand
Maybe I’ve just had too much to drink
Lately I feel so unstable
All my friends say “you alright man?”
[Pre-Chorus]
Closing the doors, checking the locks, look out the window
Lie on the floor, calling the cops when I hear the wind blow
[Chorus]
When they kicked open the door I was hiding
And I came out with my hands in the air
I said “officer, someone’s inside”, and
When he turned on the light
It was just me standing there in the mirror
Guess I’m a stranger to myself
Guess I’m a stranger to myself
[Verse 2]
Lonely conversations trying to get to know the face that’s staring back at me
He almost feels familiar
And just when I thought I knew him
He disappeared from view and I’m afraid that I might be here with a killer

Closing the doors, checking the locks, look out the window
Lie on the floor, calling the cops when I hear the wind blow
[Chorus]
When they kicked open the door I was hiding
And I came out with my hands in the air
I said “officer, someone’s inside”, and
When he turned on the light
It was just me standing there in the mirror
Guess I’m a stranger to myself
Guess I’m a stranger to myself
