Inside Out
The Gun Lyrics

So you walk away from an open door
You turned away from an opportunity without taking advantage of it.

With no sympathy from a man who knows
You didn't receive empathy from someone who is familiar with your situation.

Somebody's lost somebody cries
Someone is feeling lost and their emotions are overwhelming them.

Where were you standing
What was your position in this situation?

How could you fall for all the lies
How did you become deceived by falsehoods?

Looking back in time do you see the truth
Can you recall and acknowledge what actually occurred in the past?

It's so easy to find
The truth is not difficult to ascertain.

Somebody's weak somebody's strong
One person is struggling while another one is thriving.

Thought that I'd stumble
You reckoned that I would make mistakes.

You got it all wrong
Your perceptions of me were incorrect.

Look back in anger look back in shame
Reflecting on the past brings feelings of both rage and guilt.

Somebody told you somebody's losing out again
Someone shared with you about another person who is once again confronting setbacks.

Inside outside love
Love that is felt both internally and externally.

All the feelings gone
The emotions have dissipated.

You're just a face in the crowd
You are indistinguishable in the midst of everyone else.

And I wonder why
I am curious about the reason.

Somebody's lost somebody's found
Somebody has given up, somebody has achieved something.

I'll watch you climb up only to fall down
I'll observe you succeed for a short period, but then you'll fail again.

I see a stranger that I used to know
I witness somebody who is no longer familiar to me.

Look to the future
Direct your focus to what is to come.

Somebody's seen it all before
Someone has already experienced similar events.

Are you outside love
Do you exist outside of the love that is being discussed here?

Was the truth applied
Was honesty implemented in the situation?

Where you criticised
Did people express criticism towards you?

Did you lose your pride
Did your self-esteem suffer?

Were you dignified
Did you maintain a sense of dignified behavior?

Did your hopes slide
Did your expectations diminish?

Was it worldwide
Did this situation affect people globally?

Were you satisfied
Did you feel content with the outcome?

Are you qualified
Are you ready or capable to handle the situation?

You don't talk so loud
Your voice and presence are not as prominent as they once were.

After all these years
Despite the passing of time.

Can you see through the tears
Can you perceive the reality of the situation despite your emotional response?

There's nothing you can do
There are no options available to you.

To save your soul tonight
To prevent your spiritual wellbeing from deteriorating.

How does it feel
What emotions are you experiencing?
