Strangers
Tomas Mogensen (a.k.a. DRAX) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You even said it to my face and I ain't see the dangers
I feel so stupid cause I couldn't even feel the changes
Now I'm so numb to the emotions, really feeling painless
I never thought that this would happen, guess we're meant for never
And I can't lie I really thought that you would be forever
I really hope that you move on, move on to something better
Cause I can't do this anymore, I can't stand the pressure
Misinterpretations so we had another fight
This ain't working baby, sorry, but it's alright
I ain't coming with you thank you for the invite
I can't keep doing this I'm fucking with my sanity
Every time I get broken it's really damaging
Every time you said his name it always damaged me
Like everything I did for you, bae did it mean a thing
I told you I been broken before
Gave you my heart, gave you my trust, feel like I've been here before
I showed you love, I gave you everything I had in the world
And now I'm fucked up in the head, oh God I'm stuck in the storm
Baby after all we had, its like we're total strangers
You even said it to my face and I ain't see the dangers
I feel so stupid cause I couldn't even feel the changes
Now I'm so numb to the emotions, really feeling painless
I never thought that this would happen, guess we're meant for never
And I can't lie I really thought that you would be forever
I really hope that you move on, move on to something better
Cause I can't do this anymore, I can't stand the pressure
Every time I see you now I don't feel the same
And I can't even go online without me seeing your name
Everything that happened oh you got me fucked in the brain
Im so sick and tired, I just play the same old games
Maybe it's a sign that I'm not built for all this shit
But I know one thing thats for sure, I know I'm built for all these hits
So Imma go and smoke some more, yeah I'm really getting blitzed
Yeah I'm really getting lit, give no fuck about a bitch, yeah
I told you I been broken before
Gave you my heart, gave you my trust, feel like I've been here before
I showed you love, I gave you everything I had in the world
And now I'm fucked up in the head, oh God I'm stuck in the storm
Baby after all we had, its like we're total strangers
You even said it to my face and I ain't see the dangers
I feel so stupid cause I couldn't even feel the changes
Now I'm so numb to the emotions, really feeling painless
I never thought that this would happen, guess we're meant for never
And I can't lie I really thought that you would be forever
I really hope that you move on, move on to something better
Cause I can't do this anymore, I can't stand the pressure
The lyrics of "Strangers" by Tomas Mogensen, also known as DRAX, depicts a deteriorating relationship that the singer could not anticipate. The first verse talks about the singer's disbelief that the relationship has reached the point where he and his partner have become strangers despite their history. He acknowledges that he failed to recognize the changes, leaving him feeling foolish and indifferent. The second verse portrays how the couple has tried to resolve their issues, but their efforts only lead to more misunderstandings and fights. In the end, the singer acknowledges that he cannot continue living like this and feels that it's best for his partner to move on to something better.
The chorus repeats the idea that the singers' relationship is now just a distant memory, with the "total strangers" symbolism being made more apparent. The pain is evident as the relationship did not last as long as he thought it would, to his dismay. The final verse further emphasizes the singer's disappointment and frustration with the relationship's futility, to the point where he wants to escape it all by smoking and getting high. The lyrics suggest that the singer is struggling to process his emotions, and ultimately it's hindering his mental health.
Overall, the song’s lyrics showcase a sorrowful tale of a failed relationship and its consequences. The combination of the haunting beats and the heart-wrenching lyrics create a melancholic vibe, which makes the song perfect for people who like sad music.

Baby after all we had, its like we're total strangers
Despite everything we've been through, it feels like we don't even know each other anymore
You even said it to my face and I ain't see the dangers
You told me straight up but I didn't realize the significance of it
I feel so stupid cause I couldn't even feel the changes
I'm kicking myself because I didn't notice things were falling apart
Now I'm so numb to the emotions, really feeling painless
I've shut down and can't feel anything, even though it hurts
I never thought that this would happen, guess we're meant for never
I never imagined that we'd end up like this, maybe it was never meant to be
And I can't lie I really thought that you would be forever
I convinced myself that you were my forever person
I really hope that you move on, move on to something better
I wish the best for you, and hope that you find something and someone that makes you happy
Cause I can't do this anymore, I can't stand the pressure
I can't keep going through this, it's too much for me to handle
Empty cups of the liquor, we stayed up all night
We drowned our sorrows in alcohol, staying awake all night
Misinterpretations so we had another fight
We kept misunderstanding each other, leading to more arguments
This ain't working baby, sorry, but it's alright
We have to face the reality that our relationship isn't working, it's okay to move on
I ain't coming with you thank you for the invite
I'm not going to follow you on this path, but I appreciate the invitation
I can't keep doing this I'm fucking with my sanity
Continuing this cycle is messing with my mental health
Every time I get broken it's really damaging
Every time my heart breaks, it really hurts and scars me
Every time you said his name it always damaged me
Hearing you talk about someone else in that way hurts me deeply
Like everything I did for you, bae did it mean a thing
I'm starting to question if everything I did for you even mattered
I told you I been broken before
I warned you that I've been through this pain before
Gave you my heart, gave you my trust, feel like I've been here before
I gave you everything I had, but it feels like I'm going down a familiar path
I showed you love, I gave you everything I had in the world
I loved you with everything I had, I gave you everything I possibly could
And now I'm fucked up in the head, oh God I'm stuck in the storm
Now I'm dealing with the aftermath, feeling lost and overwhelmed
Every time I see you now I don't feel the same
Seeing you doesn't give me the same feelings it used to
And I can't even go online without me seeing your name
Even going online reminds me of you and the pain associated with it
Everything that happened oh you got me fucked in the brain
All the things that went down have seriously messed with my head
Im so sick and tired, I just play the same old games
I'm exhausted and just going through the motions, pretending like everything's okay
Maybe it's a sign that I'm not built for all this shit
Perhaps this is a sign that I'm not capable of handling relationships like these
But I know one thing thats for sure, I know I'm built for all these hits
Despite everything, I know that I can handle the hardships and come out stronger
So Imma go and smoke some more, yeah I'm really getting blitzed
So I'm going to smoke and numb the pain even more
Yeah I'm really getting lit, give no fuck about a bitch, yeah
I'm getting high and not caring about anyone

Soothing sine waves dance like moonlight in the ripples of a smooth pond.

I need to know more about this one, like, what is this, who's drax and how can i talk with him, what is a tracker module, why it sounds like i already know this song from 1000 years ahead in the future and at the same time it sounds like something i already lived in the past
