Outside

Original

Getting in here to my clean, clean room

I sit on the couch and I feel so cool

But I'm still outside

Looking around at the situation

I've got one hell of a reputation

But I'm still outside

Outside on the inside, I'm not anywhere at all

An actress in a movie on the screen against the wall

And locked up in here inside this hell, inside my head of concrete

Hell, I'm still, still, still outside

Back in the lobby, some sweet perfume

A tiny dress and some broken rules

But I'm still outside

5 a.m. on a one-way train

Alcohol don't numb the pain

No, I'm still outside

Outside on the inside, I'm not anywhere at all

An actress in a movie on the screen against the wall

And locked up in here inside this hell, inside my head of concrete

Hell, I'm still, still, still outside

I'm still, still, still outside

Broken window tells the pain

A bodybuilder's lost his gain

And suddenly, the weight starts to set in

The world's on fire, the water's gone

The soldier's told the march "Be on"

The safety of the flag they used to know

Outside on the inside, I'm not anywhere at all

An actress in a movie on the screen against the wall

And locked up in inside this hell, inside my head of concrete

Hell, I'm still, still, still outside

Locked up here inside this hell, inside my head of concrete

Hell, I'm still, still, still outside
