It's hard for me to face that so much time has passed And all the things that went away Were those I thought would last It's hard to look into the mirror dark within And not embracing the reflection there May be my greatest sin! Sometimes I feel I'm on the outside looking in It's like I'm watching someone else Living in my skin Hope has stained my heart in vain I'm drowning in my sin Sometimes I feel I'm on the outside looking in! Outside looking in! Standing here with empty hands to fill my heart And thinking I am winning in a race I didn't start Why is it that I always fail to hit the mark? How can I be connecting while I'm unplugged in my heart? Sometimes I feel I'm on the outside looking in It's like I'm watching someone else Living in my skin Hope has stained my heart in vain I'm drowning in my sin Sometimes I feel I'm on the outside looking in! Outside looking in! Outside looking in!
