Living On The Outside - Small Town Pistols
How does it feel on your half of the world
If you’d ask they’d say nothings changed on mine.
Just because I tell a joke or two
and believe I’ve got the whole world fooled
Done a damn good job to hide the hurt behind the lies
Didn’t even tell my mama, even my best friend.
How you walked out and took my pride.
I’ve been living on the outside dying on the inside
I’ve been livin’ on the outside dying on the inside.
I won’t pass up a single Friday night,
and I wear this smile and pray that they don’t ask
Why they never seem to see what was once the other half of me.
I just hold my breath and hide behind this mask.
I didn’t even tell my mama
or even my best friend
how you walked out and Lord I’ve tried
I ‘ve been living on the outside dyin’ on the inside
I’ve been livin’ on the outside dying on the inside
Walls if I just tear down these walls
and admit it was over, maybe it would be over.
Then I could tell my mama even my best friend.
How you talked out and bled me dry.
I’ve been living on the outside dyin on the inside.
I’ve been livin’ on the outside dyin’ on inside
Oh I was livin’ on the outside dyin on the inside
I’m through livin’ on the outside, dyin on the inside
