ON THE OUTSIDE

I’ve been trying for such a long time
To find someone with a love that is true.
I’ve checked emotions and inner feelings
Of every girl that I ever knew,
But all I find is frustration
And insecurity,
When all I need is elation.
Does anyone have a cure for me?

I’m living on the outside.
Living in a world of confusion.
Still living on the outside,
Facing all of life’s disillusions.
I can’t escape this feeling
That’s telling me I’ll never win,
But even though my head is reeling,
I jump right back into the middle again.

I’ve been searching to find a feeling
Of love inside of someone besides me.
I need somebody who understands all
The pleasant things that true love can be,
But what I’ve found is disturbing,
And hard to understand,
For I can’t stop all the hurting
That’s spreading through this land.
