Too Many Strangers Lyrics
There's too many strangers
All along the wavering miles
There's too many strangers
On the mule train
You can't remember what they said
There's too many strange things
I can stray so far
There's too many strangers
I can't patronize your smile
I can't patronize your style
I can't patronize your life
All along the wavering miles
There's too many strangers
On the mule train
You can't remember what they said
There's too many strange things
I can stray so far
There's too many strangers
I can't patronize your smile
I can't patronize your style
I can't patronize your life

This is the perfect last song to release as Wipers, a band that inspires people on a level that causes them to obsess about Greg in a one sided way for better or worse. Hard to relate to for most people, but this song makes me get it a little more. I'm sure Greg is happy that all these people are inspired by him, but it's probably impossible for him to have a real conversation with any of them that has any kind of substance. It reminds me of how Jeff Buckley retreated to some shack in the country to be alone for a while because he was feeling similarly, like everyone wanted something from him that he couldn't give. I read a piece supposedly written by Greg about his dog and how he considered it the closest thing to a soul mate he's ever had and how when the dog died he felt it's soul pass through him and how it was a powerful experience. Really beautiful couple of paragraphs. I like how animals like dogs and cats help me discover a lot about how I relate to things other than myself, and I like to think that Greg does to.
