outside of you

i can't get your attention

and i'm so sick of it

i've got something to say to you

so shut up and listen

i don't want you to look past me

i want you to know who i am

i hate it when you ignore me

you just don't understand

see the funny thing is

you're just as useless as me

i can make you better

if you would just let me in

i'm outside of you

and i can't get through

overlooking the beauty that's dying inside me

cant you see?

i'm outside of you

and i'm so confused

you keep missing the small things

the safety that love brings

can't you see?

i'm outside of you

for anything to survive

it needs love and light to grow

i could be something beautiful

i guess you'll never know

see the funny thing is

you're just as lonely as me

we could be so much better

if you would just let me in

and as you walk by me

i'm silently screaming to set me free

i look in the mirror

and i see your future

you look good with me

and as you walk by me

i'm silently screaming to set me free

i look in the mirror

and i see your future

you look good with me

oh!

i'm outside of you

i'm outside of you
