We Are Strangers

Turning the loom of the city
Going for days without sleep
Weaving the thread for the lonely
Voices that speak of the deep

We are strangers
In the silver sky we fly
We are hunger
You will know us all in time

City lights paint us all in white
With their sirens screaming in the night

We are strangers
In the silver sky we fly
Like a whisper slipping by

Luck was never on your side
Shackled in the endless rewind
Black milk of amnesia blinds
Every highrise to brutal design

We are strangers
In the silver sky we fly
We are hunger
You will know us all in time

Holding our breath for all our lives
Ride the danger of our desire
We are strangers
In the silver sky we fly

Only a crow on the wire

When they broke through the frame
Filled up our mind with broken bone
Brought a piece of the ark
And then they threw it all away

We are strangers
In the silver sky we fly
We are hunger
You will know us all in time

Made us lie pale in river beds
They Wil take from us, tell us what we owe

While you throw your coins into the fountain
Or you'll keep them for your eyes
