Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Outside we're lonely but we are free

...

We're misfits, rebels, we're creeps and freaks

...

How come they've got it figured out

While we're lost, waiting to be found?

Maybe we need something different now

For every broken bone and every lie you've told

Every time you're lost and you can't find home

This is for the ones who always feel alone

We are outsiders

Living inside a broken world

We are outsiders

And I know sometimes it can hurt

But it gets better yeah we'll make it through

We'll stay golden when we're black and blue

We are outsiders

But we're not hiding anymore

This is who we really are

Inside they talk about all their plans

Must be nice to have someone light your path

...

But inside their hearts are breaking

Cause they don't know what they're missing

Outside we're lonely but we are free

For every broken bone and every lie you've told

Every time you're lost and you can't find home

This is for the ones who always feel alone

We are outsiders

Living inside a broken world

We are outsiders

And I know sometimes it can hurt

But it gets better yeah we'll make it through

We'll stay golden when we're black and blue

We are outsiders

But we're not hiding anymore

This is who we really are

...

For every broken bone and every lie you've told

Every time you're lost and you can't find home

This is for the ones who always feel alone

We are outsiders

Living inside a broken world

We are outsiders

And I know sometimes it can hurt

But it gets better yeah we'll make it through

We'll stay golden when we're black and blue

We are outsiders

But we're not hiding anymore

This is who we really are

...
