‘Strange Room’ is the album’s darkest track, as Tim Rice-Oxley’s lyrics open up about the day he was arrested for drunk driving in 2014, shortly after his marriage ended, and reflecting on his actions in jail.
Strange Room Lyrics
[Verse 1]
A pint set on the piano
By the open window
Your arm around my shoulder
One song after another
[Verse 2]
A church to praise the good times
And shelter from the bad times
And when our run came to an end
Felt like I'd lost my best friend
[Chorus]
For a moment I was dreaming
We were just beginning
Thought, "Finally I've come home
Finally I've come home"
[Verse 3]
Officer, let me explain
I lost something I love today
Yeah, I know what it looks like
A rich kid with a good life
[Verse 4]
Now I know you're too young to
Have done things you can't undo
To rake over your dreams
And know this is what they've come to
[Bridge]
I woke up in a strange room
Time to start again now
No one to help you find a way through
You're just meant to guess it somehow
[Chorus]
Well, for a moment I was dreaming
We were just beginning
Thought, "Finally I've come home
Finally I've come home"
