Another Stranger - Rupert Hine

Remember darkness

It’s full of strangers meeting strangers talking code

Remember voices

Sometimes these voices print out danger

And I am just another stranger

Find another stranger

Who’s lost another stranger

Trying not to love you

Trying not to love you…

Remember nonsense

You were it’s witness while computers searched for fame

Remember judgement

Sometimes the finger points to blame us

Would you believe another stranger

Find another stranger

And name another stranger

Trying not to love you

Going over you with a fine tooth comb

Concentrating on your faults

There’s not a single flaw

Just ease my conscience

Remembering how we met

Tease myself with memories

Oh how could I forget

Remember silence

It stores a message of the future you will know

Remember pictures

Sometimes an image comes to trick us

It could be just another stranger

Here’s another stranger

Inside another stranger

Remember journeys

They’re full of promise taking chances breaking code

Remember places

Sometimes these faces spy like neighbours

And am I just another stranger

Meet another stranger

Who needs another stranger

Who’s lost another stranger

Inside another stranger

Nothing’s stranger than

Trying not to love you

Trying not to love you

Facing all
