A Very Familiar Stranger (Demo Bonus) - Deceased[00:00:00]
As i try to tell this story my skin's no longer tight[00:00:09]
As if it wants to leave and get away from me[00:00:12]
But i've lived through this night of fright[00:00:17]
And found real signs of other life[00:00:19]
In disbelief i'll tell you what i've seen[00:00:21]
It started out as simply normal driving in my car[00:00:25]
Taking in the world and marveling the stars above[00:00:29]
When a woman out of nowhere appeared to be in need[00:00:33]
So i stopped to reach a helpful friendly hand[00:00:36]
But something wasn't right[00:00:41]
She wouldn't speak at all but i felt this urge to help her[00:00:49]
As i told the girl to please get in my car[00:00:53]
She looked on the verge of death pure white and freezing cold[00:00:57]
So i placed my coat around her fragile arms[00:01:01]
In a couple minutes time her face showed signs of life[00:01:04]
She finally spoke and asked to take her home[00:01:08]
She gave to me an address i assured her to relax[00:01:12]
For in minute's time she'd be there safe and warm[00:01:16]
As i came across her cottage my hitchhiker was home[00:01:20]
She thanked me so and walked up through the door[00:01:24]
As i turned to pull away i remembered of my jacket[00:01:27]
She wore it as she struggled to stay warm[00:01:31]
I left my car and rang the bell thinking she'd be waiting[00:01:35]
Instead i got the mother of my girl[00:01:39]
She said that she'd been waiting and not to say a word[00:01:43]
And down a narrow hall she took my hand and led the way[00:01:47]
We stopped in a tiny room that looked as if un lived[00:01:51]
All around sat pictures of my stranger's face[00:01:54]
But the borders they were black the signature of death[00:01:58]
She informed me that my passenger was dead[00:02:02]
I didn't believe a word she was sitting right beside me[00:02:06]
Only minutes back riding in my car[00:02:11]
She took my hand and led me back outside and through a gate[00:02:38]
To a private cemetery in the yard[00:02:42]
On a grave there sat a picture of my unexpected guest[00:02:46]
From the grave i learned she died some time ago[00:02:49]
She said in stranger's cars her daughter finds a ride[00:02:59]
For an accident had brought her to the ground[00:03:03]
And every night she comes home to please her lonely mother[00:03:06]
It's an instinct fromt he time she spent on earth[00:03:10]
But she is gone she assured me death had come[00:03:14]
And this ghostly image was living on in my mind[00:03:20]
I told her to cherish her spirit[00:03:29]
She just sat and cried at the grave[00:03:32]
I told her to cherish her spirit[00:04:19]
She just sat and cried at the grave[00:04:22]
In the cold she was in mourning at the passing of her child[00:04:35]
So i felt the need to leave and let her be[00:04:39]
But i stopped to quickly question who was my freezing stranger[00:04:43]
She was the perfect image of the girl[00:04:47]
As i turned to leave the madness i caught a flash of something[00:04:51]
It was sticking out from underneath the grave[00:04:55]
In a shocking revelation i became at one with death[00:04:59]
As instantly i learned the woman spoke the truth[00:05:02]
For in the grave before me my jacket in the ground[00:05:06]
The one i gave my stranger on this night this very night[00:05:10]
She was my stranger yet she was dead familiar stranger[00:05:18]
She was my stranger yet familiar stranger yet[00:05:30]
