i’m trapped on the outside
looking in
i always am
i hide up high
i hear my spoken words echo
as they hit the ground
slamming
bouncing off those you
might not have meant to say to me
and i see myself in your eyes
what a surprise
i don’t even recognize
oh baby help my find myself
swallow me whole and spit out the bad
find what’s gone wrong
cause you know somewhere
something
did
and baby bring me back down
to life
to level
so i can be in myself instead of above
cause oh how i want to feel
and not just act
you know i’d melt my cell bars
into a pool of black sins
if i were strong enough to swim across
why do i gotta fly so high
so low
crash and die
sleep forever
and i’d scratch the walls
until my fingers bleed
but it’d only reflect
all those wrongful things said
all those thin lines
i tend to try to cross
more often than not
but not on purpose
i’m only outside looking in
