on the outside

---

out on your own and you wonder what you're gonna do
can't believe the things you've been going through
how long must you play these silly games (these silly games)
i think about the lies and the misery
every time that you made a fool of me
just a joke, but it hurts me just the same (just the same)
i know (i know), what you're going through
it's not easy on the outside
gotta take your chances on the run
(oh-oh-oh-oh....)
i just can't believe what you do to me
why is this the way it's got to be
what did i do to deserve this anyway (what did i do, anyway)
took a chance on you when no one cared
threw aside the things i love so dear
now all you can do is turn me away
i know (i know), what you're going through
it's not easy on the outside
gotta take your chances on the run
so hard (so hard), to make them believe
you just want to help in some way
but they never let you have any fun
on the outside
when you're looking in
on the outside
you just can't ever win
on the outside
never gonna turn away
on the outside
think about it every day
on the outside
it comes on so strong
on the outside
it seems to go on and on
i know (i know), what you're going through
it's not easy on the outside
gotta take your chances on the run
so hard (so hard), to make them believe
you just want to help in some way
but they never let you have any fun
on the outside
when you're looking in
on the outside
you just can't ever win
on the outside
never gonna turn away
on the outside
think about it every day
on the outside
when you're looking in
on the outside
you just can't ever win
on the outside
it comes on so strong
on the outside
it seems to go on and on
(oh-oh-oh-oh....)
