Strangers Under One Roof

9 years ago I wrote a song couldn't finish writing due to my miserable marriage New city lights and a deadline clock I was a prisoner to the morning watch Family calling with the weight of the world Just a lonely, tired, working girl. Then you stepped out from the faceless crowd A sudden quiet where the noise was loud We locked eyes and I felt a spark A stranger’s smile to light the dark. Chorus But we’re just two strangers renting a home Under a roof where I feel all alone You fell first, or so you said Now I’m living in the traps you thread. From a savior’s hand to a heavy fist A life of love that doesn’t exist I’m praying for you to change your heart While I’m the one who’s falling apart. Verse 2 You taught me the streets of this concrete maze Then locked the doors in a velvet haze "Don’t wear that dress," "Don’t look at him" While you’re scrolling through models on a digital whim. Behind closed doors, the words turn sharp You tear the strings right out of my harp Calling me names I’d never repeat While you play the saint out on the street. Verse 3 The backyard’s my kingdom, the only sky I see While you’re recording the "crazy" in me Pushed every button 'til I lost my mind Then showed the world how "cruel" I’m aligned. I thought my parents showed me the way That you fight through the fire and choose to stay But I’ve been waking up with holes in my head From a war I lost in our own bed. Chorus Yeah, we’re just two strangers renting a home Under a roof where I feel all alone You fell first, or so you said Now I’m living in the traps you thread. From a savior’s hand to a heavy fist A life of love that doesn’t exist I’m praying for you to change your heart While I’m the one who’s falling apart. Outro I spent my nights praying to save your soul Begging for God to make you whole But the silence broke and the truth ran free I was praying for you... When I should have been praying for me. Someone save me. Please, someone save me. #fypシ #instagramreels #youtubeshorts #
