Letter To A Stranger

I wanted to make this a good song but it didn't work out so well. One day, when I'm better at protesting, I shall hopefully come back and improve it. Next year I'm going to have to go through and re-copyright these all…

Here goes:

[Verse]

Dear sir or madam,
It's come to my attention,
That you're not all you seem to be

I'm having to write this letter,
You obviously think you're better,
You won't even come talk with me

[Pre-Chorus]

You can't live like this any longer,
Cos the world is moving on,
But like a broken record,
You're stuck on the same old song

I wish I could change your mind,
But you can't even hear my voice,
It's time for that wake up call,
It's time to make a choice

[Chorus]

Stop acting so stuck up,
Stop buying new stuff,
How can you say you are better than me,
When you won't even let me be free?

Stop pushing the boundaries,
Stop pretending you care,
When you give money to the poor,
Cos I know you could give so much more

You cannot deny it,
Stop trying to hide it,
Cos when you say you're holy,
You really mean lonely

[Verse]

You're sat in the dark,
Why not grab my hand,
Let me take you into the light

Responde sil vous plait,
It's time to change your way,
It's something you know you can't fight

[Pre-Chorus]

I can't take another moment,
Another distasteful remark,
Cos like a hungry dog,
Each word is just a bark

Making thoughtful faces,
Then switching back to apathy,
But that's just you all over,
Apathetic, a pathetic

[Chorus]

Stop acting so stuck up,
Stop buying new stuff,
How can you say you are better than me,
When you won't even let me be free?

Stop pushing the boundaries,
Stop pretending you care,
When you give money to the poor,
Cos I know you could give so much more

You cannot deny it,
Stop trying to hide it,
Cos when you say you're holy,
You really mean lonely

[Bridge]

In the religion of the strangers like you,
Do you sit around and study who to avoid?
Every week is there a meeting to decide,
Who is let into your church?

No tolerance, you pushed them all away,
You can only stay with those who are perfect,
Did you ever listen to the man born in a manger?
No wonder you're a stranger

[Chorus]

Stop acting so stuck up,
Stop buying new stuff,
How can you say you are better than me,
When you won't even let me be free?

Stop pushing the boundaries,
Stop pretending you care,
When you give money to the poor,
Cos I know you could give so much more

You cannot deny it,
Stop trying to hide it,
Cos when you say you're holy,
You really mean lonely
