~Lyrics~

[Intro]
(Let it out, I'll be fine)
(Outside laughing, wonderful time...)

[Verse 1]
Locked inside my head
This way, I’ll be better off instead
Of being dead inside

I don’t recognize
Through these eyes
What I see in front of me

You don’t see
Count to three
No longer me

Paranoia’s getting higher
Chalk it up to being tired
You don’t understand the hell
That I’ve been living through

Is it even worth it to confide in someone
Knowing there’s a risk
So I’ll learn to keep the
Outside inside

[Pre-Chorus]
And I know that you want me to smile and be okay
Push the pain away, just to make you stay

[Chorus]
See me on the outside laughing
I’m having such a wonderful time
Some would say that I’ve been masking
Every thought of mine

Sure, I’m on the inside screaming
I promise you that I’ll be fine
You don’t know the difference between
Outside inside

[Verse 2]
Try to pass the time
Look for ways to show you that I’m fine
Won’t cross that line again

I know you don’t give a fuck
You don’t give a shit unless I fall in line
Fake a smile, wait awhile
Not my style

I can’t really tell you how I’m feeling
Say I’ll be fine
This problem’s mine to deal with

Every time I tell you, it’s the same thing
You just brush me off
So I’ll keep the outside inside

[Bridge]
Put me back together
Just to tear me apart
Can you not the see the stitches
That hold together my heart

And I know that you want me to act like I’m okay
But I’m not okay, so what do I say?

[Chorus]
See me on the outside laughing
I’m having such a wonderful time
Some would say that I’ve been masking
Every thought of mine

Sure, I’m on the inside screaming
I promise you that I’ll be fine
You don’t know the difference between
Outside inside

[Chorus 2]
See me on the outside laughing
I’m having such a wonderful time
Some would say that I’ve been masking
Every thought of mine

Sure, I’m on the inside screaming
I promise you that I’ll be fine
You don’t know the difference between
Outside inside

[Outro]
See me on the outside laughing
I’m having such a wonderful time
Some would say that I’ve been masking
Every thought of mine

Sure, I’m on the inside screaming
I promise you that I’ll be fine
You don’t know the difference between
Outside inside
