on the outside

I've been trying to keep my feet on the ground I feel like I'm floating (floating) Scared that I'll always be alone in the crowd Where nobody knows me (knows me) 'Cause they all laugh behind my back like I don't know That my whole life is the punchline to a bad joke I feel like I try, but it's the same every time Do you know what it's like on the outside? Why am I so surprised when it's the same every time? Do you know what it's like on the outside? Yeah, in a different life, I would go out at night And make friends with strangers (ah) I'd be someone they'd like if I could just get it right I wouldn't be such a failure But they all laugh behind my back like I don't know (ooh) That my whole life is the punchline to a bad joke I feel like I try, but it's the same every time Do you know what it's like on the outside? Why am I so surprised when it's the same every time? Do you know what it's like on the outside? I'm standing on my own, I'm out here in the cold I just wanna come down You can let me go if I'm too much to hold I'll get better somehow (somehow) I'm standing on my own, I'm out here in the cold I just wanna come down You can let me go if I'm too much to hold I'll get better somehow I feel like I try, but it's the same every time Do you know what it's like on the outside? Why am I so surprised when it's the same every time? Do you know what it's like on the outside?
