Arkells - Don't Be A Stranger Lyrics
We were 17, first time away from home
You lived down the hall
Went to school in Oshawa
Days would go by, you'd never leave your room
I'd ask what was wrong
It's easy for me to say:
I'm not alone with those conversations
That you have with yourself all day
Man I get it when you need escaping
When it gets too much
I love you like my own blood
So don't be a stranger
No one ever knew how you two could ever be related
Despite a father with no patience
I returned his call, I tried to say, "it's nobody's fault"
It's easy for me to say:
I'm not alone with those conversations
That you have with yourself all day
Man I get it when you need escaping
When it gets too much
I love you like my own blood
So don't be a stranger
It's 10 pm, you've been drinking
You're holding court and putting on a show
All the talent, but its a balance
I can't tell you anything you don't already know
I can't predict the next time it'll hit
And the urge comes on strong
To pack it in and dissolve
It's easy for me to say:
I'm not alone with those conversations
That you have with yourself all day
Man I get it when you need escaping
When it gets too much
When it gets too much
I know it gets too much
What have you been taking?
I love you like my own blood
So don't be a stranger
Don't be a stranger
Don't be a stranger
Don't be a stranger

This is so good
They need to go back to there old sound
went to high school in oshawa.... Who? and what high school
Does anyone else find this sounds like Cage The Elephant ?
100%, I find it almost leaves a bit wanting cause it doesn't get quite as garage-ey as I am expecting
Nice Song!
Beautiful tune.
Seeing you guys perform Whistleblower live is still on the bucket list
Hot off the damn press 👌
I don't think these guys can put out a bad song, love it!
Not as good as Morning Report imho but i love them all the same
@yowza234 These guys have been one of my favourite bands since I first heard oh, the boss is coming. Seen them live more times than I can remember (helps that I live 20 mins from their hometown). They put on one hell of a show.
The boys are back 👍 keep it going.
