Outside

  • There you are dancin' at your altar
    Beautiful earthling, dressed in cashmere
    All your sound echoes through the canyons
    Down below they're dreamin'
    Hear the sirens screamin'
    Another time, another world
    Girls were boys and boys were girls
    Find the glitter, in the litter
    Like a haunt, it's got to move
    Everybody needs some room
    There's somethin' out there

    There's a long straight road, out of the cold
    And we can leave it all behind
    I wanna get outside, baby, let's get outside
    I wanna get outside, outside, of me

    All I found the space between the spaces
    Standin' in the nothin', and time reclaims you
    Now as the wind will beat you down
    And the wind the only sound
    There's somethin' out there

    There's a long straight road, out of the cold
    And we can leave it all behind
    I wanna get outside, baby, let's get outside
    I wanna get outside, outside, of me

    There's a long straight road, out of the cold
    And we can leave it all behind
    I wanna get outside, baby, let's get outside
    I wanna get outside, outside, of me Writer/s: Christopher Shiflett, Dave Grohl, Nate Mendel, Oliver Taylor Hawkins, Pat Smear
