outsider
aren’t you afraid of the golden sun
the way it burns your tongue
when you admit the things you’ve done
outsider
seventeen was long ago
you grew up but you’re not old
you're just tired of the cold
outsider
you can’t sing songs by yourself
you put your friends up on the shelf
and they can’t hear your cries for help
outsider
you are nothing that they say
and you count of your mistakes
as you walk home from the train
you could be on the inside
if you want
you could be on the inside
but it’s hard
you could be on the inside
if you tried
but you never do you always
just get high
outsider
you’re standing out in city air
you say that you’ll never care
but i see you run your hands through your hair
outsider
you love but you don’t love right
you try to hold on to the empty night
and call me when it gets too tight
you could be on the inside
if you want
you could be on the inside
but it’s hard
you could be on the inside
if you tried
but you never do you always
just get high
