These Lines Will Go Into a Song, If I Ever Get It Finished

The tentative title of the song is The Stranger, not to be confused with the Billy Joel composition of the same name. In this case, the Stranger is a real person. These words come from the perspective of somebody who knows the Stranger:

When I say the things they want to hear
They're quick to smile and lead a cheer
But when I speak truth that they despise
They mock and spit and roll their eyes
