The World Outside [Full Song With Extension]

[Intro]: [Verse 1]: I stare into the mirror, Try not to scream!!! Practice my smile, After I make myself clean!!! Feign a little bit of kindness, to hide my deep despair!!! Recite the words they want to hear, To convince them that I care!!! Just one final adjustment, as I study my display!!! and leave the comfort of my home, To survive another day!!! [Pre-Chorus]: The world outside is... Cold---!..., The world outside is... Cold---!..., The world outside is... Cold---!..., The world outside is... [Chorus]: Every days been getting harder!, (There's a darkness inside of me!). Rearing up, without warning!, (Consuming everything it sees!). Smiling people pass my way!, (Why can't I be the same?). Appreciative of mediocrity, (Instead of wallowing in shame!). [Verse 2]: Trying to make conversation, Is like pulling teeth!!! They repeat the same old lines, Every time they speak!!! What they have, what they want, Sometimes it's just too much to bear!!! As I nod in agreement, Pretending that I care!!! [Pre-Chorus]: The world outside is... Cold---!..., The world outside is... Cold---!..., The world outside is... Cold---!..., The world outside is... [Chorus]: Every days been getting harder!, (There's a darkness inside of me!). Rearing up, without warning!, (Consuming everything it sees!). Smiling people pass my way!, (Why can't I be the same?). Appreciative of mediocrity, (Instead of wallowing in shame!). Spending time with "friends", Is just something that I do!!! It helps me play the part, So you think I'm just like you!!! No one cares, but they always ask me, Is there some way they can help!!! As I fight the compulsion, To scream "Go Fuck Yourself!!!". [Pre-Chorus]: The world outside is... Cold---!..., The world outside is... Cold---!..., The world outside is... Cold---!..., The world outside is... [Chorus]: Every days been getting harder!, (There's a darkness inside of me!). Rearing up, without warning!, (Consuming everything it sees!). Smiling people pass my way!, (Why can't I be the same?). Appreciative of mediocrity, (Instead of wallowing in shame!). Deep inside I'm... Cold---!..., Deep inside I'm... Cold---!..., Deep inside I'm... Deep inside I'm... Cold---!..., Deep inside I'm... [Chorus 2]: Turn off the phone! Leave me alone!, (As I replay my day!). Every word and every gesture, (Did I give anything away?). I try so hard, to be like you!, (But there's an emptiness in me). And it's reaching out!!! (Consuming everything it sees!). [Solo]: [end]: [Outro/Chorus]: The world outside is... (Cold-----!) The world outside is... (Cold-----!) Deep inside I'm... (Cold-----!) Deep inside I'm... (Cold-----!) The world outside is Cold------!!! Deep inside I'm Cold------!!! The world outside is Cold------!!! ...And I'd rather be----, alone-----!!!! [Musical breakdown]: [End]:
