“Outside,” is about realizing the truth about yourself and who you really are. Not wanting to go outside, to face the truth or anything, not wanting anyone to see how broken you truly are. But the feeling of being so overwhelmed shatters you like glass, showing how close you are of letting go of you...
[Chorus]
Hold on a minute
I don't want to go outside
I don't want to face my pride
There's a limit to how long I can wait
To how long I can take before I start to show
How close I am to letting go of myself
[Verse 1]
I've been waiting so, so long
But here we are now
Here we are now
I will judge myself
Guilty of loving you too much
I will smother you just to feel your touch
I will offer you my whole self, not just my best
[Verse 2]
You can take me as I come or discard me like the rest
Take me by the hand
And show me to the world
I am nothing but a man
You are nothing but a girl
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, how long can I take before I start to show
How close I am to letting go of myself
[Chorus]
Hold on a minute
I don't want to go outside
I don't want to face my pride
There's a limit to how long I can wait
To how long I can take before I start to show
How close I am to letting go of myself
