lirik lagu the fruit tree foundation - singing for strangers
this politeness is proving a hurdle
i’m tripping on words
i’d rather fade into the background
climb into these walls
i’m watching from doorways and corners
i’m singing for strangers
the thousand wins over the few
i long for the faceless
i long for that view
the years are distilled into hours
stripped of a history
stripped to the waist
you never paid in at the door
the least i’d expect for this danger
so i thought out loud
but i can’t stand the sound of my own voice
can i still carry the tune?
when i’m awkwardly clothed in uncomfortable shoes?
hunched at the back of the cl-ss
hoping that no-one will notice me no-one will ask
questions that strangle my thoughts
oh the answers are not on the back of my hand
labour for love and a song
it never rains but i pray that it pours
so i thought out loud
but i can’t stand the sound of my own voice
if you think that you did catch sight of me
it was only a trick of the light
i’ve been running since it dawned on me
my extrovert has taken fright
so i thought out loud
i just can’t stand the sound of my own voice
so i thought out loud
i heard the sound of my own voice
i came in for the chorus
singing for strangers
