Stranger (Collab by Danii and AndreaStryder)

Yesterday is gone
Today is tomorrow
Things went wrong
While we lived in fear
If he didn't care, I would stay away
Nothing could compare to the price I would pay
To leave it all behind
And forget what I wanted to say
Stranger in a mask
I dare not ask
Thy name on my tongue tasted bitterly sweet
I fell to my knees in shock and defeat
I focused on the task
Of removing his mask
My hands came near
I pulled away in fear
I didn't want to see
What wasn't meant for me
There, I sat, waiting to die
Refusing to face the hideous lie
I would stay by his side
And would no longer hide
I wanted this..
Our fatal kiss
The children seized to play
As the preacher prepared to play
There was my stranger
I knew not what to say
As he pulled his mask away

(Inspired by the song; "magic man" , by heart.)
