Standing on the Inside

Standing on the outside
Looking in
You know it's been a long time
Don't know where to begin

So much I wanna say
So much I wanna do
Friends are telling me
It's time that you broke through

I've been through the hard times
For searching souls
You know it's been a hard climb
From rock'n roll

Now I feel the need in me
So hard to explain
Now I see the diamond
And I wanna remain

Standing on the inside
I finally broke that night
Bring around a circle
Don't you know that it feels so fine?

Every waking moment
I just want to sing the news
That I'm standing on the inside
I kicked away them blues

All the phoney faces
Stand in line
All the backslappers
Know my name this time

Now that I've got a life
Now that I've opened the door
I won't be on the outside anymore

Standing on the inside
I finally broke that night
Bring around a circle
Don't you know that it feels so fine?

Every waking moment
I just want to sing the news
That I'm standing on the inside
I kicked away them blues

Standing on the inside
I finally broke that night
Bring around a circle
Don't you know that it feels so fine?

Every waking moment
I just want to sing the news
That I'm standing on the inside
I kicked away them blues

Standing on the inside
I finally broke that night
Bring around a circle
Don't you know that it feels so fine?
