Stranger Songtext
von The Recks

While the craven dogs cry
I suck in humble pie
Under the shadow of flashings from the sad rave
I smile

I know you know they know
There′s a stranger in town
And for some strange reason
I had another vision
Of the man who stood tall and proud
Despite my reactions
I lost him in the crowd

Run child, run child
Beware of the killer
Run child, run child
Hide from the killer
Run child, run child
Run from the killer now


I heard he caught
A feral child
Walking in the wild
I heard he loved it as his own
And he killed a mom on the way back home
I heard he caught the rarest spider
It crawled from deep inside
He sowed his sins on the northern wind
And he burned a witch
And he burned her twin

Run child, run child
Beware of the killer
Run child, run child
Hide from the killer
Run child, run child
Run from the killer now

The thunder strikes
And the lightning falls
As they call out the names of the dead

The tears mix with rain
As they call out the names
Of all those who are left behind

The flames from beneath
Scorch the soles of the feet
Of the folk that are left on the earth
They all join their hands
Write their names in the sand
As they scream and they fight to be heard


Run child, run child
Beware of the killer
Run child, run child
Hide from the killer
Run child, run child
Run from the killer now
