the outside

i didn't know what i would find
when i went looking for a reason, i know
i didn't read between the lines
and baby, i've got nowhere to go

i tried to take the road less traveled but...
nothing seems to work the first few times
am i right?

so how can i ever try to be better?
nobody ever lets me in and
i can still see you
this ain't the best view -
on the outside, looking in.

i...'ve been a lot of lonely places
i...'ve never been on the outside...
