Still a Stranger Lyrics
[Verse 1- Davey Havok singing]
There is misunderstanding that there’s a bliss beneath it all
That every time it’s never ending, there is a kiss to change us all
It’s in the dark, it’s in your photo that keeps on falling from the wall
Tell me it’s better way up there. I need you. I need you. I need you to tell me…
[Chorus- AFI]
Does it feel the same
After healing fame
And all the strange, strange, strange behavior?
Does it make it worse?
They mispronounce the hurt
I feel so strange. I’m still a stranger
[Verse 2- Davey Havok singing]
Is there the misunderstanding that there’s a hit of healing light?
Tell me the cuts finally stop showing before we kiss, again, the night
Here in the dark, tripping your picture I keep rehanging on the wall
I need you better way up there. I need you. I need you better
[Chorus- AFI]
Does it feel the same
After healing fame
And all the strange, strange, strange behavior?
Does it make it worse?
They mispronounce the hurt
I feel so strange. I’m still a stranger
[Bridge- Davey Havok screaming]
Does it feel the same?
Would I feel like you?
Because I still feel strange
Are you a stranger too? (I’m still a stranger)
I wish it mattered more (I’m still a stranger)
But I never will be you
I ALWAYS FEEL SO FUCKING STRANGE!!!
Are you a stranger too?
I'M STILL A STRANGER!
I'M STILL A STRANGER!!! (Are you a stranger?)
[Chorus- AFI]
Does it feel the same
After healing fame
And all the strange, strange, strange behavior?
Does it make it worse?
They mispronounce the hurt
I feel so strange. I’m still a stranger
I’m still a stranger
I’m still a stranger
There is misunderstanding that there’s a bliss beneath it all
That every time it’s never ending, there is a kiss to change us all
It’s in the dark, it’s in your photo that keeps on falling from the wall
Tell me it’s better way up there. I need you. I need you. I need you to tell me…
Does it feel the same
After healing fame
And all the strange, strange, strange behavior?
Does it make it worse?
They mispronounce the hurt
I feel so strange. I’m still a stranger
Is there the misunderstanding that there’s a hit of healing light?
Tell me the cuts finally stop showing before we kiss, again, the night
Here in the dark, tripping your picture I keep rehanging on the wall
I need you better way up there. I need you. I need you better
Does it feel the same
After healing fame
And all the strange, strange, strange behavior?
Does it make it worse?
They mispronounce the hurt
I feel so strange. I’m still a stranger
Does it feel the same?
Would I feel like you?
Because I still feel strange
Are you a stranger too? (I’m still a stranger)
I wish it mattered more (I’m still a stranger)
But I never will be you
I ALWAYS FEEL SO FUCKING STRANGE!!!
Are you a stranger too?
I'M STILL A STRANGER!
I'M STILL A STRANGER!!! (Are you a stranger?)
Does it feel the same
After healing fame
And all the strange, strange, strange behavior?
Does it make it worse?
They mispronounce the hurt
I feel so strange. I’m still a stranger
I’m still a stranger

Still surprised this has no entries. I had two theories on the lyric meaning. First is someone that you look up to, maybe who isn't there with you anymore. You need them BETTER because things where you are...is still the same.
The other part of it might be a feeling of being a stranger to yourself - kind of like an imposter syndrome type feeling. The talk about "healing fame" could also point to the fact that after STS, AFI isn't getting the same press attention ....
