Outside - Mariah Carey

Lyrics by：Mariah Carey

Composed by：Mariah Carey/Walter Afanasieff

It's hard to explain

Inherently it's just always been strange

Neither here nor there

Always somewhat out of place everywhere

Ambiguous

Without a sense of belonging to touch

Somewhere halfway

Feeling there's no one completely the same

Standing alone

Eager to just

Believe it's good enough to be what

You really are

But in your heart

Uncertainty forever lies

And you'll always be

Somewhere on the

Outside

Early on you face

The realization you don't

Have a space

Where you fit in

And recognize

You were born to exist

Standin' alone

Eager to just

Believe it's good enough to be what

You really are

But in your heart

Uncertainty forever lies

And you'll always be

Somewhere on the

Outside

And it's hard

And it's hard

And it's hard

Irreversibility

Falling in between

And it's hard

And it's hard

To be understood

As you are

As you are

Oh and God knows

That you're standing on your own

Blind and unguided

Into a world divided

You're thrown

Where you're never quite the same

Although you try-try and try

To tell yourself

You really are

But in your heart-uncertainty forever lies

And you'll always be

Somewhere on the outside

You'll always be

Somewhere on the outside
