Outside in the darkness
There's something happening here
Outside in the darkness
Speeding out through the universe
Hot fear and a heartbeat
Standing face to face
Red light in the distance
It's getting cold and the air is running out
Outside in the darkness
There could be nothing for days
Outside in the darkness
I can hear the devil walk about
Flying over the rock face
And over cities in flames
Red light in the distance
It's getting cold and the air is running out
It?s on my TV screen
I'm not a static machine, oh
It?s on my TV screen
I'm not a static machine, oh
It?s on my TV screen

Showing signs of nothing but troubled times
Since I had you
Had you on my mind
But your heart is locked
You left me outside
Don't get a buzz, baby
When I start buzzing when you're here
Why don't you return?
Please come over here
But your heart's locked up
You left me outside
You left me outside
I been brought down
And it's a bad sensation
It's just too much
Too much for me to take
Without a chance now
There's no romance now
I better leave before I break
Oh oh
I been brought down
And it's a bad sensation
It's just too much
Too much for me to take
Without a chance now
There's no romance now
I better leave before I break
Oh oh
Don't get a buzz, baby
When I start buzzing when you're near
Why don't you return?
Please come over here
But your heart's locked up

What's it like to be on the downhill side?I'm still on
the other side,
And I'm finding it so hard that
I just stopped trying.
I'm so ordinary when you look at me,
Nothing really or very bad has ever happened to me.
And it feels like nothing matters anymore.
As I open up this door,
I am on the outside, looking in.
Hello, these are my would-be friends.
You all say 'you look fine to me,'
But I'm not what I seem to be.
Do not trust what you see.
It's getting close the three,
And I'm wasting time.
I must be out of my mind
To be waiting for the words to come and find me.
Has anybody seen my better side?
Or seen me from the inside,
Looking out on all I tried to leave behind?
When it feels like I don't matter anymore.
And I can't get through this door,
I'm still on the outside, looking in.
Hello, these are my would-be friends.
You all say 'you look fine to me,'
But I'm not what I seem to be. (verse x3)
I'm still on the outside (looking in)
I'm still on the outside (looking in)
I am on the outside (looking in)

Sometimes when I'm walking through the night
the darkest time
I'm looking through the windows open wide
the light inside
Someone else's life seems always fine
while mine cries
Because I'm looking in from the darker side
outside
I'm hiding outside here
from the only life so real
Inside I might die
so I can't open the door so near
for me
When I'm living someone else's life
so peaceful inside
I wish this feeling will not ever die
inside
I'm hiding outside here
from the only life so real
Inside I might die
so I can't open the door so near
I'm hiding outside here
from the only life so real
Inside I might die

Do you mind if we smoke this blunt outside?
Cuz' it's nice out and we could get high
Yea the sun shinin' and I'm feelin right
We outside, We outside (Hey, Hey, Hey)
I wake up, throw on some clothes and out the door I won't be back
My shinin' sun horizon settin up a lovely backdrop
My life's a topic of a lullabye
(Ah) A breath of fresh air, is something right
I don't wanna be inside today,
just keep it rollin like we ridin' skates
I got a happy of haze.
I'm thinkin we gon' get high today,
And let the sun shine all in my face.
Oh yeah this life is good, don't let it all go to waste
Just walk outside the door to get your mom off your case.
Yeah, free livin', I swear, I be on some hippie shit.
But gettin way fresher than the hippies is.
I got the, the gift of gab, somethin that you wish you had,
Don't even get a strap naw I'd rather kick a rap
Enjoy the place that you livin' at stay around
We just some kids and this world is a playground
Do you mind if we smoke this blunt outside?
Cuz' it's nice out and we could get high
Yea the sun shinin' and I'm feelin right
We could post outside for the night
Do you mind if we smoke this blunt outside?
Cuz' it's nice out and we could get high
Yea the sun shinin' and I'm feelin right
We outside, outside
When I be on some kid shit, gon take my shorty on a picnic
And everyday feelin like it's Christmas
the kinda weather had by people livin' so priviledged
I know the Lord Take, today he was tryna giveth
Hey, hey, ey, rich or poor, a sunny day a sunny day,
We start the madness as soon as we hit the month of May,
Rain, Rain, Go away, Waitin for my homie Mr. Sun to come our way.
Little kids runnin' through the streets playin,
Papi on the porch he ain't got time to waste it.
He's just a old man in the sea, Ernest Hemmingway,
Elevate, look up in the sky starin Heaven Space.
Second grade, holdin down the corner slangin' lemonade,
Everyday hustlin', you ridin' down penny lane.
You ain't gonna get a day like this,
so put the rest of your troubles with that goodnight kiss
Do you mind if we smoke this blunt outside?
Cuz' it's nice out and we could get high
Feel the sun shinin' and I'm feelin right
We could post outside for the night
Do you mind if we smoke this blunt outside?
Cuz' it's nice out and we could get high
Oh yeah the sun shinin' and I'm feelin right
We outside, outside
Do you mind if we smoke this blunt outside?
Cuz' it's nice out and we could get high
Feel the sun shinin' and I'm feelin right
We could post outside for the night
Do you mind if we smoke this blunt outside?
Cuz' it's nice out and we could get high
Oh yeah the sun shinin' and I'm feelin right

For your time its written out.
Work means nothing by itself.
These days are numbered, I can tell.
Until the crash I'll write you down.
Selection kills the old.
Selection breathes on its own.
Sing while you can.

Outside, I stretch the mind that hides within
New pride, I lose four walls that keep me tied
Outside, I breathe new air that reaches me
Fresh tide, does all the cleansing life can give
Tongue-tied, no words will match this point of view
Chastise, I don't belong as no one owns
Washing, flowing, taking, all my fears away
Rushing, blowing, touching, gives all life a grace
Washing, flowing, taking, all my fears away outside
Outside, I stretch the mind that hides within
New pride, I lose four walls that keep me tied
Washing, flowing, taking, all these fears away
Rushing, blowing, touching, gives my life a grace

And you bring me to my knees, again
All this time that I could beg you please, in vain
All the times that I felt insecure, for you
And I leave my burdens at the door
I'm on the outside
I'm looking in
I can see through you
See your true colors
'Cause inside you're ugly
Ugly like me
I can see through you
See to the real you
All this time that I felt like this won't end
It's for you
And I taste what I could never have
Was from you
All those times that I tried
My intentions
Full of pride
And I waste more time than anyone
I'm on the outside
I'm looking in
I can see through you
See your true colors
Cause inside you're ugly
Ugly like me
I can see through you
See to the real you
All the times that I cried
All this wastin
It's all inside
And I feel all this pain
Stuffed it down
It's back again
And I lie here in bed
All alone
I cant mend but I feel
Tomorrow will be okay
I'm on the outside
I'm looking in
I can see through you
See your true colors
Inside you're ugly
Ugly like me
I can see through you
See to the real you

Seems the time is near for finding a place outside
Seems the time is here for holding the window wide
So I'm going to try
To open up one eye
But if the world is too wide
I'll be home to hide
Keep it warm inside, if it's strange, outside.
Seems the time has flown, when we lived inside a cloud
Seems the time has gone, when nothing we said was out loud
Going to find a word
Make myself be heard
But if the world is too loud
I'll be home from the crowd
Keep it soft inside, if it's strange, outside.
Seems the time has come for banging our feet to the ground
Seems the time has come to see if the world is round
Sweep the smoke away
Reach the earth today
But if the world is all wrong
I won't be staying long

He wants to give but he'll give himself away
She wants to take but she's taking all she can
They've got it all figured out
He wants to listen but there so much more to say
She wants to shout it out loud but she doesn't
She doesn't open her mouth
Had enough of crying
When she's happy and smiling when she sad
Had enough of wondering
What became of all the dreams he had
Are they out there somewhere
Baby don't you stay there on the inside
Together we can make it on the outside
You and me on the outside
Can you remember the way it used to feel
We'd run as fast and as far as we wanted to go
But then the walls closed in
And I was one step forward and two steps back
Two steps forward and three steps back
Oh it's all too much
So take my hand we'll jump together
Baby I won't leave you on the inside
Together we can make it on the outside
You and me on the outside
You and me on the outside
On the outside
Shine your light on me and I'll shine my light on you
Shine my light on you if you shine your light on me
Shine your light on me and I'll shine my light on you
On the outside
On the outside
On the outside
Baby I won't leave you on the inside
Together we can make it on the outside
You and me on the outside
You and me on the out (yeah)

Gazing, pale black eyes
Longing, to see them
Bleed for his needs and cry for their lost lifes
He's telling us all but we're cold and small
I can't feel. I'm just bored and out of reach
Life is our only world
I'm watching the wicked play outside
Life is our only world
I'm watching the wicked play outside
We will hide the reasons come close
And die with empty eyes he will
Kill your sweet dreams stragle your whole world
He's growing inside, under blackend skies
I can't feel I'm tired and I don't care.
Life is our only world
I'm watching the wicked play outside
Life is our only world
I'm watching the wicked play outside
Fill me some more, I'm waiting for your blood
He's telling us all but we're cold and small
I can't feel I've seen in all before
Life is our only world
I'm watching the wicked play outside
Life is our only world

Oh no feels like I'm falling
Away from myself
Outside feels like it's calling

tell a lie thats enough give me a story you made up and
ill forgive you, i don't care what you say you know its
all in your head. ill never get you. And your talking
these things through like you know what you've been
through but theres not a lot of reason in the things
that we believe in so i'll believe in you.
i am on the outside of truth and i'm looking in on you.
but you're staining this town with fighting.
You're staining this town with fighting.
And I'm honest as a photo booth.
I'm just playing off of you,
but you're leaving me fast as lightning.
You're leaving me just to spite me.
And it must be hard living in a castle counting daddy's money's must be a hassle. probably you cant
divide and i probably should live a lie but I've been
taught that theres more to living life then knowing
scores, i'm proud to say i'm honest, i'm proud to say
i'm right.
i am on the outside of truth and i'm looking in on you.
but you're staining this town with fighting.
You're staining this town with fighting.
And I'm honest as a photo booth.
I'm just playing off of you,
but you're leaving me fast as lightning.
You're leaving me just to spite me.
Time out i don't need this drama and i will take you
back any day, i will take you back, and i am out of
things to argue but i will take you on any day i will
take you on.
i am on the outside of truth and i'm looking in on you.
but you're staining this town with fighting.
You're staining this town with fighting.
And I'm honest as a photo booth.
I'm just playing off of you,
but you're leaving me fast as lightning.

This evil burns me up, consumes me
Swallows me whole
And destroys the light that
Makes everything pure
Outside
A weeping echo of hate soon fades
Amongst the crumbling ruins
Of my shattered coherence
Bleeding, slowly churning onwards
Nightmares unbind
The turning threads of life
Demise of an identity
Moulting into obscure, tortuous convolutions
Locking into me
Throughout my chemistry
This wrath just waiting
Eager to devour
Outside
My saddened soul is noticing
Decay and carelessness
Ploughing wrinkles into the face
Of humanity
Turning
Turning all true will to age
Turning all will to destruction
As we all indulge in one last dance
Towards extinction
Sweet melancholy madness still finds
A tragic beauty to this decaying ensemble
As I reminisce upon the fallen beauty of the past
It's feelings fallen forever
To the starving void of time

open the window wide
can you see way up high
what do you feel inside
polythene english skies
open the window wide
can you see far behind
how do you feel outside
polythene english skies
open the window wide
can you see way up high
what do you feel inside
polythene english skies
open the window wide
can you see far behind
how do you feel outside
polythene english skies
outside
outside
open the window wide
can you see way up high
what do you feel inside
polythene english skies
open the window wide
can you see far behind
how do you feel outside
polythene english skies
open the window wide
can you see way up high
what do you feel inside
polythene english skies
open the window wide
can you see far behind
how do you feel outside
polythene english skies
outside

(Verse)
Wandering alone outside
Wandering alone outside
I cut you all in a lie
I cut you all in a lie
Wandering alone outside
Wandering alone outside
A world I don't have to die

She was so perfect she was so pretty
She had everything but no friends
They hated her they wouldn't see
That she fighted all her strength
Lonely she cried and cried
She just tried to hide
This couldn't be the true
She didn't know what to do
She was outside in the cold air
With others that wouldn't stop stare
She asked for something new
But she didn't knew
I'll be like others she said to herself
She change everything but no friends
They hated her they woulnd't help
In her big fight all her strength
Lonely she cried and cried
She just tried to hide
This couldn't be the true
She didn't know what to do
She was outside in the cold air
With others that wouldn't stop stare
She asked for something new
But she didn't knew

Someone left the door open
Who left me outside
I'm bent I'm not broken
Come live in my life
All the words left unspoken
All the pages I write
On my knees and I'm hoping
That someone holds me tonight
Hold me tonight
Welcome to the world
And all the landing that was wasted
The blood upon your hands
And the wickedness that made it
Seem to scream it all
And the memories get faded
See the exit wound
Dear God what have we taken
I guess I'll say a prayer
And I'll kiss into the air
I'll look into the sky
Send them straight to nowhere
We all dug the grave
Can't shake away the shame
Can't quiver in the sky
But your shaking all the same
You left us with the guns
And all of 'em were loaded
Teach us how to shoot
But you taught us how to hold them
All the weight of all the world
Is right between your shoulders
Heavy is the heart
When the world keeps growing colder
Who left the door open
Who left me outside
I'm on my knees and I'm hoping
That someone holds me tonight
Hold me tonight
Two sides to every story
Here's a little morning glory
Breakfast of a mirror dying slow
Seems a little boring
Burn it like a flag
Walk it straight into the breeze
Cause there's two types of people
You are weak or you are me
Yeah what's another life time
Like mine
We all die a little sometimes
It's alright
Did you come to say your goodbyes
To this life
We all hard a little sometimes
We're alright
So mothers hold your children
Don't you ever let 'em go
There is weakness in your grip
And they are holding all your hope
Don't you ever let me go
Don't you ever let me go
Don't you ever let me go
Don't you ever let me go
Who left the door open
Who left me outside
I'm on my knees and I'm hoping
That someone holds me tonight
Hold me tonight
Someone left the door open
Who left me outside
I'm bent I'm not broken
Come live in my life
All the words left unspoken
All the pages I write
On my knees and I'm hoping

(Greg)
Through the windshield, on the footbridge
They cling to each other at the close of day
They've not a care for the crush of traffic
Their captive audience, they say
Look we've each other
What more could we ask for
We're right where we want to be
We're right where we want to be
And my heart skips and I twist a little
And the light's green and I drive away
I think who knows
What it is what it might be
I know anything goes
I've been there don't remind me
All kinds of twisted thoughts
Swirling through her head
She's already wondering about the baby
And look at him, watch his eyes
Who knows could be
He's already gone for the weekend in his mind
So here I am All on my own
Looking around Sun is shining
In all directions And now I feel
The wave inside And now I feel

And you bring me to my knees
Again
All these times that I could beg you please
In vain
All the times
That I felt insecure
For you
And I leave my burdens at the door
I'm on the outside
I'm looking in
I can see through you
See your true colors
'Cause inside you're ugly
You're ugly like me
I can see through you
See to the real you
(Fred Durst, speaking)
This is the real motherfucking deal y'all
I'm feeling those lighters
All the times that I felt like this won't end
Was for you
And I taste what I could never have
It's from you
All those times that I've tried
My Intentions
Full of Pride
And I waste more time than anyone
I'm on the outside
I'm looking in
I can see through you
See your true colors
'Cause inside you're ugly
You're ugly like me
I can see through you
See to the real you
All the times that I've cried
All this wasted
Its all inside
And i feel all this pain
Stuffed it down
Its back again
And I lie here in bed
All alone
I can't mend
And I feel
Tomorrow will be ok
Only hope
(Fred Durst and Aaron Lewis, Sung)
I'm on the outside
I'm looking in
I can see through you
See your true colors
Inside you're ugly
You're ugly like me
I can see through you

It's hard to explain
Inherently it's just always been strange
Neither here nor there
Always somewhat out of place everywhere
Ambiguous
Without a sense of belonging to touch
Somewhere halfway
Feeling there's no one completely the same
Standing alone
Eager to just
Believe it's good enough to be what
You really are
But in your heart
Uncertainty forever lies
And you'll always be
Somewhere on the
Outside
Early on, you face
The realization you don't have a space
Where you fit in
And recognize you
Were born to exist
And it's hard
And it's hard
And it's hard
Irreversibly
Falling in between
And it's hard
And it's hard
To be understood
As you are
As you are
Oh, and God knows
That you're standing on your own
Blind and unguided
Into a world divided
You're thrown
Where you're never quite the same
Although you try - try and try
To tell yourself
You really are
But in your heart - uncertainty forever lies
And you'll always be
Somewhere on the outside
You'll always be

He's breathes the air lightly
Since skipping parole
And he dials the phone quietly
But she put him on hold
There are good sons and bad seeds
She thinks he's the latter
But it no longer matters what she'll say
He'll be driving all night anyway
Over backroads he'll ride
Then he cuts the headlights
And he watches their lives
From the outside
And they can't let him in
So he's driving again
As he's wishful thinking
On the outside
Mmmmmmm...
Oh say can you see by the dawns early light
Playing on the T.V.
I guess he's in for the night
He fell asleep waiting for his sister to call
All the motels and roadside bars
He wants home but it only gets farther
Over backroads he'll ride
Then he cuts the headlights
And he watches their lives
From the outside
And they can't let him in
So he's driving again
As he's wishful thinking
On the outside
Oohhh...
Yes, it's killing them knowing he's out there, somewhere
Reminding that they could be too
oohhh...
Over backroads he'll ride
Then he cuts the headlights
And he watches their lives
On the outside
And they can't let him in
Cause they know where he's been
So he's left there thinking
On the outside
On the outside
