Stay Strange (Spoken) You know… Nobody ever writes songs about the people that are actually okay. We’re all obsessed with the beautiful train wrecks. The ones who leave. The ones who lie. The ones who promise forever… …right before they disappear. But then there’s you. You tip the waitress. You hold the door. You wave at little kids. You stop when somebody’s talking… Like what they have to say actually matters. I’ve been waiting for the catch. The part where you become… Everyone else. … It hasn’t happened. Honestly… I hope it never does. ⸻ [Verse 1] You say, “Drive safe.” You wait your turn. You know the names Of people at work. You smile first. You smile twice. You make bad days Feel alright. ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] I’ve been waiting… For the bad part. I’ve been waiting… It never comes. ⸻ [Chorus] Don’t change. Stay strange. Stay exactly That way. Stay kind. Stay true to you. We still need People like you. ⸻ (EDM Drop) Stay strange… Stay strange… Stay strange… ⸻ [Verse 2] You feed stray cats. You stop for dogs. You laugh out loud At awful jokes. You call your mom. You keep your word. You make hope Look easy. ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] I’ve been waiting… For the catch. I’ve looked everywhere. There isn’t one. ⸻ [Bridge] Maybe… You aren’t unusual. Maybe… The rest of us Forgot Who we were. ⸻ (Surf guitar lead into EDM build) Stay strange… Stay strange… Stay true to you… ⸻ [Final Chorus] Don’t change. Stay strange. Stay exactly That way. Stay kind. Stay true to you. We still need People like you. Don’t fade. Stay bright. The world feels different Next to you. Stay strange. Stay true to you. ⸻ (Spoken Outro) You know… I think I finally found the catch. You make the rest of us… Want to be better.
