Outside looking In

topsy turvey turnabout
must be guilty of some sin
cause once again I'm outside
I'm outside looking in

now you see it now you don't
using slight-of-hand
things change oh so drastically
so hard to understand

peek-a-boo now you're it
must be time to turn and hide
I know there is an explanation
but it tears me up inside

sometimes the sun will shine
but the clouds always return
get so excited when I need my shades
but when will I ever learn

for every moment of sublime bliss
there are a hundred worse
a thousand times a goodbye kiss
it's such an evil curse

no explanation saying why
none is needed I'll take it on the chin
growing colder inside no more tears to cry
I'm outside looking in
