Caught on the Inside

I can hear you rattling your window

I can hear you playing up the pane

Even though you never leave your bedroom anymore

I can hear you all the same

All the same

All the same

All the same

All the same

As hard as I try, you still can't look me in the eye

After all this time, only you know the reason why

Well, they say you're shy and you get caught on the inside

Come on, come out, there's so much light

But there ain't much time

I can hear you crackin' off a windpipe

And the silence last for days

Then I see you coming round again

'Cause nothing ever lasts for every minute of the day

Last the day

Last the day

Last the day

Last the day

As hard as I try, you still can't look me in the eye

After all this time, only you know why

They say you're shy and you get caught on the inside

Come on, come out, there's so much light

But there ain't much time

No, there ain't much time

No, no, there ain't much time

Boy, if you knew the nights I'd stayed up thinking and crying over you

But I sit back and I say, "what can I do?"

Come on, let me in and gimme a clue

But you gotta do what you wanna do

As hard as I try, you still can't look me in the eye

After all this time, after all this time

They say you're shy and you get caught on the inside

Come on, come out, there's so much light

But there ain't much time

Oh no, there ain't much time

No, now there ain't much time
