Hello, I love you, won't you tell me your name? Hello, I love you, let me jump in your game.

The old get older And the young get stronger May take a week And it may take longer They got the guns But we got the numbers Gonna win, yeah We're takin' over Come on!

Five to one, baby One in five No one here gets out alive, now You get yours, baby I'll get mine Gonna make it, baby If we try.

When you're strange Faces come out of the rain When you're strange No one remembers your name When you're strange.

People are strange when you're a stranger Faces look ugly when you're alone Women seem wicked when you're unwanted Streets are uneven when you're down.

It hurts to set you free, but you’ll never follow me.

We chased our pleasures here, Dug our treasures there, But can you still recall The time we cried? Break on through to the other side!

You know the day destroys the night, Night divides the day, Tried to run — Tried to hide — Break on through to the other side!
