The Stranger [Verse 1] He comes from the darkness that comes from within He hides in the shadows of the night Stalking his prey to the corners of the earth Never cease or give up until the job is done He will come for your soul [Chorus] He rides in the dark He steals your heart No one knows his name But he’ll come for you the same Don’t mess with the Stranger [Verse 2] Hiding in plain sight, blending with the masses Just another face among the crowd You won’t know he’s there, holding the knife Until you’re looking at the sky, bleary eyed Wondering where your life went, escaping to nothing Hoping that it will come back [Chorus] He rides in the dark He steals your heart No one knows his name But he’ll come for you the same Don’t mess with the Stranger [Verse 3] He devours wherever he goes Consuming all within reach Help will not come for you If you happened to cross his path So, fight for your life [Chorus] He rides in the dark He steals your heart No one knows his name But he’ll come for you the same Don’t mess with the Stranger [Bridge] He set his eyes on me without notice Relentlessly chased after my soul I didn’t want to die tonight So, I reached out for help Thinking I found solace in the warmth around me Failing to see it was him [Chorus] He rides in the dark He steals your heart No one knows his name But he’ll come for you the same Don’t mess with the Stranger [Chorus] He rides in the dark He steals your heart No one knows his name But he’ll come for you the same Don’t mess with the Stranger [Outro] Watch out! He comes for your soul!
