Outside...Lookin' In
( part I )

I'm out of my world,
outside lookin' in
with my face against the past
the candles burning dim
cuz all these things
that come to mind
are the hateful things
I've left behind
now the memories
they won't fade away
they seem to surface... everyday
there's things in life
that we can't change
like the human mind
in a state of rage
as I look inside
this world gone wrong
the end is near,
it won't be long
cuz mass destruction's burnin' strong
and keeps on burnin'
on and on
cuz we seem to make the same mistakes
we've always made before
and the more we try
to make the change
we make'em even more
cuz we're still outside
a world lookin' in
and  the candles burnin'
above the din
