INSIDE OUT
When I’m all turned inside out
Burnin’ heart out on my sleeve
Would you put this fire out?
Would you pack it up and leave…
when I’m all turned Inside Out?
When I’m lyin’ on the floor
Dust and whiskey on my face
Would your shadow cross my door?
Would you choose to take my place…
when I’m lyin’ on the floor?
CHORUS
Take this bottle from my hand
Take this bitter from my tongue
Take this scarecrow of a man
Take this shamble of son…
When I’m all turned Inside Out
When I’m standin’ in the rain
Choking on my wasted tears
Would you shatter from the strain?
Would you wish away these years…
when I’m standin’ in the rain?
When I’m hiding from the storm
Soaked in silent, secret shame
Would my shelter be your arms
Would they break under the blame…
when I’m hiding from the storm?
CHORUS
