Living On the Outside

How does it feel on your half of the world

If you'd ask they'd say nothings changed on mine

Just because I tell a joke or two

And believe I've got the whole world fooled

Done a damn good job to hide the hurt behind the lies

Didn't even tell my mama, even my best friend

How you walked out and took my pride

I've been livin' on the outside dyin' on the inside

I've been livin' on the outside dyin' on the inside

I won't pass up a single Friday night

And I wear this smile and pray that they don't ask

Why they never seem to see what was once the other half of me

I just hold my breath and hide behind this mask

I didn't even tell my mama

Or even my best friend

How you walked out and Lord I've tried

I've been livin' on the outside dyin' on the inside

I've been livin' on the outside dyin' on the inside

Walls if I just tear down these walls

And admit it was over, maybe it would be over

And Then I could tell my mama, even my best friend

How you talked out and bled me dry

I've been livin' on the outside dyin' on the inside

I'm through livin' on the outside dyin' on inside

Oh I was livin' on the outside dyin' on the inside

I'm through livin' on the outside, dyin' on the inside
