On the outside looking in
Shouting loud at those within
I give 'em signs, I'm knocking on the door
I yell like hell 'til my throat gets sore
But they don't hear me: no reply

Hear me now, before I lose my mind
Look at me, you must be blind
Gonna throw a stone, I'll smash the window
I'll make you see I am flesh and bone

But you ignore me: no reply
You don't see me: no reply

What's the problem? Open up the door
It's enough, can't take it anymore
Gonna break the door if there's no answer
I'll burn this place so you will see

You don't hear me: no reply
You don't see me: no reply

I don't ask for so much but it's damn cold out here
A smile or a gentle word would help
To make it all seem less severe

The place is burning, now they can't come out
They're screaming loud, I can hear them shout
They give me signs, they're knocking on the door
They yell like hell 'til their throats get sore
But I don't hear them: no reply

I don't ask for a lot but it's damn cold out here
A smile or a gentle word would help
To make it all seem less severe
