The Outsider
My skin is pale, it hurts to breathe
I'm staring at the crystal ceiling
The trees are blue and as I speak
It's like you're trying not to hear me
So I'll be watching from the sideline
As your friends are telling you
That I am different and I won't fit in
I hear them playing "Mr. Brightside"
And you're dancing as if you don't even notice me
'Cause I don't fit in, oh-oh
You'll never know what it's like
Here on the outside
There's a wall I don't know how to get through
I wanna know what it's like
But I'm stuck on the outside
And I'm longing for a place on the inside
with you
As it turns, the world is grey
It's spinning while I sit in silence
My eyes are red and I'm ashamed
It gets impossible to hide it
So I will love you from the outside
When your friends are telling you
That I am different and I won't fit in
I hear them playing "Mr. Brightside"
And you're dancing as if you don't even notice me
'Cause I don't fit in, oh-oh
You'll never know what it's like
Here on the outside
There's a wall I don't know how to get through
I wanna know what it's like
But I'm stuck on the outside
And I'm longing for a place on the inside
with you
I know I don't belong here, belong here with you
I know I don't belong here, belong here with you
I know I don't belong here, belong here with you
You'll never know what it's like
Here on the outside
There's a wall I don't know how to get through
I wanna know what it's like
But I'm stuck on the outside
And I'm longing for a place on the inside
With you
I know I don't belong here, belong here with you
I know I don't belong here, belong here with you
I'm staring at the crystal ceiling
The trees are blue and as I speak
It's like you're trying not to hear me
So I'll be watching from the sideline
As your friends are telling you
That I am different and I won't fit in
I hear them playing "Mr. Brightside"
And you're dancing as if you don't even notice me
'Cause I don't fit in, oh-oh
You'll never know what it's like
Here on the outside
There's a wall I don't know how to get through
I wanna know what it's like
But I'm stuck on the outside
And I'm longing for a place on the inside
with you
As it turns, the world is grey
It's spinning while I sit in silence
My eyes are red and I'm ashamed
It gets impossible to hide it
So I will love you from the outside
When your friends are telling you
That I am different and I won't fit in
I hear them playing "Mr. Brightside"
And you're dancing as if you don't even notice me
'Cause I don't fit in, oh-oh
You'll never know what it's like
Here on the outside
There's a wall I don't know how to get through
I wanna know what it's like
But I'm stuck on the outside
And I'm longing for a place on the inside
with you
I know I don't belong here, belong here with you
I know I don't belong here, belong here with you
I know I don't belong here, belong here with you
You'll never know what it's like
Here on the outside
There's a wall I don't know how to get through
I wanna know what it's like
But I'm stuck on the outside
And I'm longing for a place on the inside
With you
I know I don't belong here, belong here with you
I know I don't belong here, belong here with you
