On The Outside

Hang tight now don't go running off
I think you got your way
There's nothing here but
Broken memories and countless days
You think that no one hears you
But I know that you are there
Echoes through these walls
Are ringing out and oh, so clear

It seems there's no way out
Where do you think that you're going?
You scream and shout
I swear I've seen that look before
No way out
It just goes to show, yeah
You never really know what's going on

Is this the least of my worries
You never know what's really going on
Wish I could tell you I'm sorry
Would you just sit back and play along

It's okay, I'll be just fine
Smiling on the outside
Take my hand, take your time
Sometimes it doesn't show on the outside

It's in your voice, I hear the resistance
As if there were a choice, instead of persistence
Discouraged and annoyed, I feel the distance
Is this the way that you see this going down?

It seems there's no way out
Where do you think that you're going?
You scream and shout
I swear I've seen that look before
No way out
It just goes to show, yeah
You never really know what's going on

Is this the least of my worries
You never know what's really going on
Wish I could tell you I'm sorry
Would you just sit back and play along

It's okay, I'll be just fine
Smiling on the outside
Take my hand, take your time
Sometimes it doesn't show on the outside
