Your Stranger Lyrics

I don’t want to be your nothing,
I don’t want to be your...
I don’t want to be your nothing,
I don't want to be your...
I don't want to be your nothing,
I don't want to be your...
I don't want to be your nothing,
I don't want to be your...
I don’t want to be your stranger.

I think myself to pieces,
Because there might have been nothing but us,
I think myself to pieces,
An elaborate hoax that you’re gone,
I think myself to pieces,
Seam ripper to the hem that we made,
I think myself to pieces,
How many of you can fit behind the face?

I don’t want be your nothing,
I don’t want to pass a stranger’s eye,
Hovering above our bodies,
In the dark I still rewind,
I don’t to be your nothing,
Just another blur in a faceless crowd,
I don’t want to be your...
I don’t want to be your stranger.

I think myself to pieces,
Dark echo of the noise that we made,
I think myself to pieces,
No cake to cut, you need space,
I think myself to pieces,
Tears of sweat from your skin,
I think myself to pieces,
Love is a fantasy I’m in.

I don’t want to be your nothing,
I don’t want to be your...
I don’t want to be your nothing,
I don't want to be your...
I don't want to be your nothing,
I don't want to be your...
I don't want to be your nothing,
I don't want to be your...
I don’t want to be your stranger.

I think myself to pieces,
Because there might have been nothing but us,
I think myself to pieces,
An elaborate hoax that you’re gone,
I think myself to pieces,
Seam ripper to the hem that we made,
I think myself to pieces,
How many of you can fit behind the face?

I don’t want be your nothing,
I don’t want to pass a stranger’s eye,
Hovering above our bodies,
In the dark I still rewind,
I don’t to be your nothing,
Just another blur in a faceless crowd,
I don’t want to be your...
I don’t want to be your stranger.

I think myself to pieces,
Dark echo of the noise that we made,
I think myself to pieces,
No cake to cut, you need space,
I think myself to pieces,
Tears of sweat from your skin,
I think myself to pieces,
Love is a fantasy I’m in.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
