  • I'll be taking flowers to the cemetery of my heart
    For all of my lovers in the present and in the dark
    Every anniversary, I'll pay respects and say I'm sorry
    For they never stood a chance as if they could
    When no one knows what it's like to be us

    I've never seen the sky this color before
    It's like I'm noticing everythin' a little bit more
    Now that all the dust has settled
    I rebut all my rebuttals
    No one knows what it's like to be us

    Strangers by nature
    Strangers by nature

    Will I ever get there?
    Oh, I hope that someday I'll learn
    To nurture what I've done

    Ooh-ooh, ooh
    Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
    Mmh-mhm-mhm-mhm-mm
    Ooh-ooh-ooh
    Ooh
    Alright then, I'm ready Writer/s: Adele Laurie Blue Adkins, Ludwig Emil Tomas Goransson
