| Verse 1 |
| It's hard to explain Inherently it's just always been strange Neither here nor there Always somewhat out of place everywhere Ambiguous Without a sense of belonging to touch Somewhere halfway Feeling there's no one completely the same |
| Chorus 1 |
|
Standing alone Eager to just Believe it's good enough to be what You really are But in your heart Uncertainly forever lies And you'll always be Somewhere on the Outside |
| Verse 2 |
| Early on, you face The realization you don't Have a space Where you fit in And recognize you Were born to exist |
| Chorus 2 |
| Standing alone Eager to just Believe it's good enough to be what You really are But in your heart Uncertainly forever lies And you'll always be Somewhere on the Outside And it's hard And it's hard And it's hard |
| Bridge |
| Irreversibly Falling on between And it's hard And it's hard To be understood As you are As you are Oh, and God knows That you're standing on your own Blind and unguided Into a world divided You're thrown Where you're never quite the same Although you try--try and try To tell yourself You really are But in your heart--uncertainly forever lies And you'll always be Somewhere on the outside You'll always be Somewhere on the outside |
