Staind Picture
Staind is a four-piece alternative band from Springfield, Massachusetts. Staind self-released their debut album, Tormented, in November 1996. Their second album, Dysfunction (produced by Fred Durst and released on Elektra Records), was their breakthrough record, and has sold more than two million albums in the United States. However, it was the release of the single "Outside" off of The Family Values Tour '99 compilation that sent Staind into superstar status. With heartbreaking lyrics and great acoustic guitar, the single garnered massive radio airplay and was a major force behind sending Staind's next album, Break the Cycle, into multiplatinum status.

Outside Lyrics

Staind

And you bring me to my knees, again
All this time that I could beg you please, in vain
All the times that I felt insecure, for you
And I leave my burdens at the door
Im on the outside
Im looking in
I can see through you
See your true colors
cause inside youre ugly
Ugly like me
I can see through you
See to the real you
All this time that I felt like this wont end
Its for you
And I taste what I could never have
Was from you
All those times that I tried
My intentions
Full of pride
And I waste more time than anyone
Im on the outside
Im looking in
I can see through you
See your true colors
Cause inside youre ugly
Ugly like me
I can see through you
See to the real you
All the times that I cried
All this wastin
Its all inside
And I feel all this pain
Stuffed it down
Its back again
And I lie here in bed
All alone
I cant mend but I feel
Tomorrow will be okay
Im on the outside
Im looking in
I can see through you
See your true colors
Inside youre ugly
Ugly like me
I can see through you
See to the real you
