Taking Back Sunday
The Stranger
[Verse 1]
Every time you bend
Living for the rent
Tighter every time going gets hard
Shouldn’t have to be this hard

[Chorus]
Don’t you get lonely?
Like I know you get lonely?
Come on, act like you know me
Don’t you get lonely?

[Verse 2]
Ritalin the meter, don’t make much sense
I know a couple guys that’s gonna handle it
The problem in the mirror, it don’t take no shit
'Cause I know a couple guys that’s going to handle it

[Chorus]
'Cause don’t you get lonely?
Like I know you get lonеly?
Come on, act like you know me
Don’t you gеt lonely?

[Verse 3]
There you go again
Leaning on the fence
Why’s it always have to be this hard
Shouldn’t have to be this god damned hard
[Chorus]
'Cause don’t you get lonely?
Like I know you get lonely?
Come on, act like you know me
Don’t you get lonely?

[Post-Chorus]
Well, don't you treat me like a stranger
Well, don't you treat me like a stranger
Oh

[Bridge]
Why would you give me that look?
Is what you’ve got in the trunk
It opens, my love is a diesel engine
Why would you give me that look?
Is what you’ve got in the trunk
It opens, my love is a diesel engine
Why would you give me that look?
Is what you’ve got in the trunk
It opens, my love is a diesel engine

[Outro]
Well, don't you treat me like a stranger
Well, don't you treat me like a stranger
[Outro Voicemail]
Steve, it's your father
I'm calling to see if you had fun
