Inside Looking Out

Count all the days I've been living in solitude
It all adds up but I don't really want it to
Cause time is a waste and I don't think it ever lasts
I'd rather be stuck in today and forget my past

I am what I am and I don't wanna think about
The ways I could change or at least try to figure out
There's no way I'd feel the same
As I do when I hide my face

I will drown inside myself
It's what keeps me happy
And I will stand beside myself
Because it's healthy
And I could care for no one else
As long as I've got myself and I'm
On the inside looking out

The sun never shines through the windows I've covered up
I sit in the dark and I drink from a dirty cup
My favorite escape is the corner of any room
Where I can lie and feel a little less a fool

My hands getting numb yeah, they're older than I've become
My hair I don't cut cause I don't need to show it off
There's no reason to impress
Sometimes I don't even dress

I will drown inside myself
It's what keeps me happy
And I will stand beside myself
Because it's healthy
And I could care for no one else
As long as I've got myself and I'm
On the inside looking out

I could be dreaming of something but I won't
Cause I know that there's nothing coming by
Tonight
I dance alone cause I think that it's funny
I just keep on like a jaded monkey
As time goes by

This is my life though you may think it's not worth living
I do enjoy being cold and alone cause I'm crazy
And that's what I am all about
I live from the inside looking out

I will drown inside myself
It's what keeps me happy
And I will stand beside myself
Because it's healthy
And I could care for no one else
As long as I've got myself and I'm
On the inside looking out...
