Outside Lyrics & Chords By Judie Tzuke

Inside my room is a box full of treasures,
Where I keep memories and they make me smile,
Inside my room, pillows filled up with feathers,
It smells like home and it’s there I feel safe,

Outside me, a world of joy, a world of pain I didn’t realize
Outside me, I had to go there, so that I could see with my own eyes,
Outside me, what can I do to help make a change?
It’s hard to be outside

Inside my room, where you told me your stories,
Sung me sweet lullabies, to send me to sleep,
Inside my heart, you put love and protection,
You've given me strength, so I could choose life

Outside me, a world of joy, a world of pain I didn’t realize
Outside me, I had to go there, so that I could see with my own eyes,
Outside me, what can I do to help make a change?
It's hard to be outside me...
It's hard to be outside me...

Like the leaves I will give myself to the wind,
No matter where I go, let the future come in,
It’s hard to be outside me, it’s hard to be outside
