"The Outside" lyrics - RED

RED
"The Outside"
(Anthony Armstrong / Rob Graves / Jasen Rauch)

What if I'm not the same?
What if I never let go of the blame?
What if you drag me back again?
What if I just let you pretend?
I erase this memory
I escape this gravity
Is that how I used to be?
Is that the price of my identity?

[Chorus:]
I'm standing on the outside
I'm lookin' in on what you can't hide
You're dying in on the inside
'Cause now I can see the lies
From the outside

What if I stand ashamed?
What if I can't let go of the pain?
What if I have something to lose?
What if I've got nothing left to prove?
I replace this life you stole
I erase the world I know
What if you were always wrong?
And what if I said I knew it all along?

[Chorus:]
I'm standing on the outside
I'm lookin' in on what you can't hide
You're dying on the inside
'Cause now I can see the lies
From the outside

[Bridge:]
(From the outside)
I'm not you!
I will never!
I'm not you!
I won't let you pull me through!

[Chorus:]
I'm standing on the outside
I'm lookin' in on what you can't hide
You're dying on the inside
'Cause now I can see the lies
From the outside

[Outro:]
I'm standing on the outside
I'm lookin' in on what you can't hide
You're dying on the inside
'Cause now I can see your lies
From the outside
