"On The Outside" lyrics

"On The Outside"

Stood close enough to hear you say
"Do as the beautiful ones do"
Tore out my picture from its frame
Just wanted to be one of you

Standing on the outside, lookin'
Funny how you see the truth
But the feeling does come back to you

"She's crazy as anyone can be"
That's what they say, they say of me
What wanting love can make some do
It isn't my fault, heredity

Standing on the outside, lookin'
State of grace, state of sin
Standing on the outside, lookin'
I cannot feel a single thing
But the feeling does come back again

This morning feels like yesterday
Yesterday follows me around
Where do you go when no one cares?
Six feet under, underground

Standing on the outside, lookin'
State of grace, state of sin
Standing on the outside, lookin'
I cannot feel a single thing
But the feeling will come back again
