A Perfect Circle - A Stranger Lyrics

cast a calming apple,
up and over satellites.
to draw out the timid wild one,
to convince you it's all right.
& i listen for the whisper,
of your sweet insanity.
while i formulate denials,
of your effect on me.

you're a stranger,
so what do i care?
you vanish today,
not the first time i hear.
all the lies.

what am i to do with all this silence?
shy away, shy away phantom.
run away, terrified child.
won't you move away, you fuckin' tornado.
i'm better off without you,
tearing my will down.
