Outside - Thom Morlan

I'm outside the insane asylum

Where I've flung down my words

Into its shadow

I could never make them fit

Anyway

Never twist them

Make them moan

Make them say

What the outsiders inside the insane asylum

Can make them say

Outside the insane asylum
I'm peaking through the window
Trying to see--
But I only catch a flash of lightening
Now and then
But I'm dreaming to myself
About the storms that must rage
The thunder that cracks
The rains that must pour
Inside that dark, enlightened cage

Outside the insane asylum
I'm thinking to myself,
"Maybe I'll go crashing through that window
And be one of them"
But I'm fooling myself
Lying--
The earth is sucking at my feet
And won't let me be anything
But what I am
