[Verse 1]
I can't get your attention and I'm so sick of it
I've got something to say to you
So shut up and listen
I don't want you to look past me
I want you to know who I am
I hate it when you ignore me
You just don't understand
[Pre-Chorus 1]
See the funny thing is, you're just as useless as me
I can make you better if you would just let me in
[Chorus]
I'm outside of you and I can't get through
Overlooking the beauty that's dying inside me
Can't you see, I'm outside of you?
And I'm so confused
You keep missing the small things, the safety that love brings
Can't you see, I'm outside of you?
[Verse 2]
For anything to survive, it needs love and light to grow
I could be something beautiful
I guess you'll never know
[Pre-Chorus 2]
See the funny thing is, you're just as lonely as me
We could be so much better if you would just let me in
[Chorus]
I'm outside of you and I can't get through
Overlooking the beauty that's dying inside me
Can't you see, I'm outside of you?
And I'm so confused
You keep missing the small things, the safety that love brings
Can't you see, I'm outside of you?
[Bridge]
And as you walk by me
I'm silently screaming to set me free
I look in the mirror and I see your future
You look good with me and as you walk by me
I'm silently screaming to set me free
I look in the mirror and I see your future
You look good with me, oh!
[Chorus]
I'm outside of you and I can't get through
Overlooking the beauty that's dying inside me
Can't you see, I'm outside of you?
And I'm so confused
You keep missing the small things, the safety that love brings
Can't you see, I'm outside of you?
[Outro]
I'm outside of you
I'm outside of you
