lyrics

Feeling powerless
Just don't make no sense
With all the things I've done,
I'm worth more than this

We cast our votes with dollar bills
And if you care to vote,
You'll have it your own way

There's something wrong
What's going on?
I'm powerless
I'm sick of this

Work for no reward
Reminded that you're poor
Live beyond your means
Eating rice and beans

Gentrified people flashing down the street
The wind begins to blow
And you're the one who flies away

There's something wrong
What's going on?
I'm powerless
I'm sick of this

Frustration doesn't change a thing
Your voice is meaningless
Your actions are all that you have

There's something wrong
What's going on?
I'm powerless
I'm sick of this

about

The Stranger Louisville, Kentucky

This project originally began as a flood of songs I wrote in the mid-Aughts. That was soon followed by experimentation with guitar tunings, out-there fuzzboxes, &c. I decided to put some drums to this and make it a duo, and The Disclosure was born... and then The Disclosure changed its name to The Stranger, thanks to that other band Disclosure loved by Pitchfork (good for them).

Enjoy the rock.
