VIRTUAL STRANGER

Sometimes I wonder if you're real,
or some day-by-day invention.
Are you a dream collage ? Identity mirage?
What is the intention ?

Chorus
There's no address in the book; I guess you dial a look,
and wear it for awhile.
With a story for a cover, contrived to please a lover,
and tied up with a smile.
Are you a promise ? Or a danger ?
Or just a Virtual Stranger ?

You seem to change in every view.
Pictures seen of you are always different.
An everyday disguise, a picture made of lies,
a film that changes in an instant.

Chorus
What's the purpose and design, for the careful costumed mind ?
Do you really like the style ?
Or is there something real, a secret you conceal,
and hide behind a smile ?
Are you a promise ? Or a danger ?
Or just a Virtual Stranger ?
