Treat Me Like A Stranger

You say you can tell the different parts of me,
one a falling bird, another a lonely child,
if it’s gonna be you, my judge and my saviour,
bury me in rock, just like I told you,
If I had a candle, I’d light it at your end,
but you won’t light me up, not even a part of me,
so let the colours run, my lover, my friend,
bury me in sand, right up till the end
But maybe for tonight, treat me like a stranger
like I was never here, in the wake of the danger,
one more time around, treat me like a stranger,
then you won’t recognize me,
Turn me over babe, turn me loose and under,
then you can drift away, leave me to the lonely tide,
but I’m glad it was you, my friend and my lover,
give me to the waves, send me down under,
At least you told the truth, somewhere so low beneath,
hanging from the noose, the parts of me,
swinging underneath, somewhere so high above
tied to the tree, the parts of me
hanging from the noose, the parts of me,
swinging underneath, somewhere so high above
tied to the tree, the parts of me
But maybe for tonight, treat me like a stranger
like I was never here, in the wake of the danger,
one more time around, treat me like a stranger,
then you won’t recognize me,
