Man on the outside, always looking in
Content to tread a path of his own
Man on the outside, envious of them
Wondering why he feels so alone
[Chorus]
Slaves to something
They don't know
And never really give a thought for
Cruel and taunting
What they show
Is their own wide-open sore
Man on the outside, swearing his revenge
To be taken out on all of you
Man on the outside, trembling with rage
Begins to make himself anew


Start anew
Destroy oneself
And remake oneself
[Chorus]
THEY'RE SO OBSESSED
WITH THEIR OWN REACTION...
NEVER DO THEY SEE WHO I AM
TREADING LIGHTLY
BECAUSE I CARE
WHY DO I BOTHER? IT'S BEYOND ME
Man on the outside, sets himself a task
To rise above the shallow ones
Man on the outside, can't avoid his past
Succeeds and fails all at once
Finds his voice
