A Stranger

“A Stranger” draws on the framework of the classic novel The Stranger to portray the alienation and indifference people experience in modern society after fleeting moments of excitement, deeply reflecting the loneliness within people.

In the harsh sun, I feel the sting,
Walking through this silent desert,
A funeral, my heart like stone,
No longer touched by life’s sweet song.

I’m just a stranger,
Wandering on the edge of solitude,
In this heartless world,
Searching for my own existence.

In the crowd, cold and unfeeling,
Every smile feels like a lie,
I watch them all, my heart like ice,
Lost in absurdity, no way to fly.

I’m just a stranger,
Wandering on the edge of solitude,
In this heartless world,
Searching for my own existence.

When night falls, stars start to gleam,
I ponder the meaning of it all,
A heart so numb, it cannot feel,
Only echoes of emptiness call.

I’m just a stranger,
Wandering on the edge of solitude,
In this heartless world,
Searching for my own existence.
