1208 - outside looking in lyrics
somebody told him that their way was the right way
he never had a chance, he never had a chance
’cause he was force fed
he had to live his death sentence to see
he was a new face with a nice smile
he got sucked in, got spit out
he was the winner by the standards of a gold digger
a success story in six figures
from the outside looking in
it was wasted life on a dream
on the outside looking in, he was wasted
turn your back to the world
so then he grew old, he thought he grew wise
he thought he’d know a bad seed in a swarm of a flies
they couldn’t wait to consider him family
take what they could get and keep walking
and on his death bed, surrounded by his friends
he saw the faces and no substance
let go with a smile of serenity
he needed change for eternity
on the outside looking in
it was wasted life on a dream
on the outside looking in
he should have seen their dream as a sin
on the outside looking in
it was wasted life on a dream
on the outside looking in, he was wasted
turn your back to the world
it’s what he didn’t know, he didn’t know that killed him
it’s what he didn’t know, he didn’t know that killed him
it’s what he didn’t know, he didn’t know that killed him
it’s what he didn’t know, it’s what he didn’t know
on the outside looking in
it’s what he didn’t know, it was wasted life on a dream
it’s what he didn’t know, on the outside looking in
it’s what he didn’t know, he was wasted
turn your back on the world
