A continuation of Jim Morrison and The Doors' track "People Are Strange."

People are Strange when you're a stranger.
Emotions of anger.
Over come by their hatred, when its all misplaced.
Stare at a face sneering right back at you,
In a puddle of tears on a lonely road.
The world is spinning, when you're a stranger.


Chorus X1[Jim Morrison]
When you're strange, Faces come out in the rain.
When you're strange.
No one remembers your name.
When you're strange.
When you're strange.
When you're....Strraannggee.

People are strange, when you're stranger.
You're spirit is hungry, a dog with no bone.
Rivers run dry, when you open your eyes and see,
The boring sky and seas are as solid as stone.
Faces are frowning. Souls screaming and shouting.
Feed my senses to tell me I'm not alone...

Chorus X1[Jim Morrison]
When you're strange, Faces come out in the rain.
When you're strange.
No one remembers your name.
When you're strange.
When you're strange.
When you're....Strraannggee.

Things seem strange, when you're a stranger.
My senses are tinging, I can feel you're there.
Vacant aromas dancing on strong winds.
Forgotten forever like breath to dust.
A gasp of air, and the bodys relaxing.
The clouds are collapsing, when you are down.

Chorus X1[Jim Morrison]
When you're strange, Faces come out in the rain.
When you're strange.
No one remembers your name.
When you're strange.
When you're strange.
When you're....Strraannggee.(alright, yeah..)

Protected by suade. Paper for helmets.
A texture of velvet would be as soothing as rain.
Joy is the face of every clown. Never to frown.
As a single tear runs down his cheek.
My pain is pounding. My veins are crowded.
Releasing the struggle with an open wound.
(People are weak)

Chorus X1[Jim Morrison]
When you're strange, Faces come out in the rain.
When you're strange.
No one remembers your name.
When you're strange.
When you're strange.
When you're...Strraannggee...

BeenThere,

I dont mean to come off as self centered, or selfish...
But I noticed most of my shit gets passed on.
Meaning I get hardly any feedback, if thats what you can call it.

Just wanna know if I offended anyone, or if there is any reason I dont recieve many replies.

astonamous,
Thank you for the answer. It explains most of the situation here.

And, Yes. There have been Hip Hop songs with samples from the Doors and Jim Morrison, as well as various other artists from all different genres than rap.

BeenThere,
Yeah I checked this out too!!! I just always try to reply in here with verse myself though of course that is not required....but you know that shit is tight man!!! ;p
Hey when did you hit 100?

bingolong,
Good lookin' on the feedback. I appreciate it.

And I'm not too sure of when I hit 100...'prolly during break.

BeenThere,
