about

When I initially sat down to write this song, it was going to be about the strangeness of the world we are in right now, specifically surrounding quarantine. However, it ended up being a song about depression instead.
Of course, I don't like to keep tings too dark so I put a bit of hope in there, but it's about how I was feeling at the time of writing it and still somewhat feel currently.

lyrics

Sun down In Strangertown
All of the signs you see around you 
Just make no sense

 You’re feeling lost
You feel so blind
your world you feel is being trapped inside.  

Time slows in Strangertown
Your feelings and your thoughts
are just confusing you 
 
You want to run
You want to hide
 Loneliness cannot break you tonight

 The houses on this street all look the same 
You feel this place you're in will never change

 Look up and see
The stars still shine

Sun up in Strangertown
You wonder if things
Will ever be  the same

It’s time to change
It’s time to fly
The life you want’s in the world outside.

The houses on this street all look the same 
You feel this place you're in will never change  

Look up and see
The sun still shines

Sun down In Strangertown...
