Better Strangers

Built around The strange reality that the person you once knew better than anyone is now a stranger again. Echo Park's neon-lit synth palette carries the concept through pop that rewards repeat listens. "I saw you at the grocery store last Friday night" — the kind of line that sticks in your head three days later. The mood runs melancholy, reflective, resigned. Genre showcases on Majik's aren't filler — they're proof that independent music can carry real emotional weight when the lyrics and production align.

[verse 1] I knew your coffee order and your mother's name The sound you make in traffic when you're going insane I knew the way you sleep and how you fold your socks The passcode to your phone and every door and lock Now I don't even know what city you live in We went from everything to strangers once again [chorus] We make better strangers than we made lovers Passing on the street like any others No wave no nod no recognition Just two people with a shared omission We make better strangers isn't that insane That forgetting you could ease the pain Better strangers [verse 2] I saw you at the grocery store last Friday night You looked right through me like I was made of light Invisible to someone who once saw it all The tallest person in your world now standing small I almost said hello but what's the point We'd just be strangers making awkward conversation [chorus] We make better strangers than we made lovers Passing on the street like any others No wave no nod no recognition Just two people with a shared omission We make better strangers isn't that insane That forgetting you could ease the pain Better strangers [bridge] It's funny how the universe recycles souls Puts them close then pulls them to different poles Maybe we were only meant to teach each other things And strangers is where the lesson ends Where it all ends [chorus] We make better strangers than we made lovers Passing on the street like any others No wave no nod no recognition Just two people with a shared omission We make better strangers isn't that insane That forgetting you could ease the pain Better strangers [outro] Better strangers That's what we are now Better strangers And I'm okay somehow
