Astraea - Stranger (Official Music Video)

Order the Looking Up EP CD: https://slinky.to/LookingUpEP 🌤️

It was unreal & so much fun shooting the Stranger music video in this dreamy 1950s time capsule house. I've been obsessed with Mad Men for years, so my character is a Betty Draper inspired plastic housewife struggling to live up to unrealistic expectations of perfection, especially when she discovers her partner has been straying and things start to unravel.... The whole video was made by me & Mark alone, hope you enjoy :)

LYRICS:
You wanted perfect but I'm only human
No room for flaws in your world of illusion

Oh I tried so hard to be who you wanted me to be
But I couldn't fake
No I couldn't fake it
And I let you pull my heart from me
Left out in the dark while I'm slowly breaking

Reach for your embrace but you're not around
There's distance in your gaze and it screams so loud
Don't recognize your face
You're a stranger to me now, now

You wanted sunlight but I was a cloudburst
You couldn't handle me at my best or worst

Oh why were you never there for me when I needed you
To carry me home
Carry me home
And I feel you fade away from me
Even when you're here I am all alone

Reach for your embrace but you're not around
There's distance in your gaze and it screams so loud
Don't recognize your face
You're a stranger to me now, now

Reach for your embrace but you're not around
There's distance in your gaze and it screams so loud
Don't recognize your face
You're a stranger to me now, now

You're just somebody who lives in my dreams
And I'll just erase you like you erased me
You don't exist here in my memory, memory, memory, memory

Reach for your embrace but you're not around
There's distance in your gaze and it screams so loud
Don't recognize your face
You're a stranger to me now, now
