I'm standing on the outside now
of what I used to be the center of.
I'm standing on the outside now
of everything I used to love

I'm standing on the outside now
of those who used to care about me
I'm standing on the outside now
of all the things I used to be

I'm standing on the outside now
of the life I used to live
I'm standing on the outside now
of all the care I used give

I'm standing on the outside now
of the window looking in
I'm standing on the outside now
wondering if I will ever win

I'm standing on the outside now
feeling the intensity of my heart beat
I'm standing on the outside now
I turn back to the lonely street

I'm happy on the outside now
ready for a brand new start
I'm happy on the outside now
as gallons of courage fill my heart

I'm happy on the outside now
as I take that first confident step
I'm happy on the outside now
ready to rebuild my rep

I'm happy on the outside now
and I don't need this anymore
I'm happy on the outside now
happy to the very core
