about

GSNX11

"Stranger At The Door is a song from my dog Banjo's perspective. He's been super anxious and paranoid since we moved to a new house. He's especially worried that there is someone or something dangerous at the front door. Some of it, and the inspiration is from his perspective. I relate it later in the song to my own social anxieties that have escalated since COVID. I often don't feel comfortable in my own skin, or without a mask, or around people in general."

lyrics

It's not because I'm faded
I'm telling you the truth
I heard it in the garden
I heard it across the room
I can't believe this happened
I can't believe it's true
I see it all around me
I read it in the news

Don't make a sound
When you come 'round
Hope you come back soon

I need you to know that it's all the same
I don't want to move on I don't want to change

I swear I'm hearing voices
There's someone at the door
It could be I'm just lonely
Or maybe I'm just bored
I used to be outgoing
But now I feel exposed
The life I have abandoned
I'm hiding in my clothes

Don't make a sound
When you come 'round
Hope you come back soon

I wish I believed that it's all the same
I hope I can move on, I know I can change
I wish I believed that it's all the same
I hope I can move on, I know I can change
