Outside Lyrics by Post Prom

Who You Pretend To Be

2021

Let’s try to capture the uncapturable
I wanna see you feeling vulnerable
Let’s not pretend I know the real you at all
You’ve only showed me what you wanted to show
And you only told me what you want me to know
And I’m sorry, but I don’t believe you at all, at all
Tell me why I feel alive

Tell me why I feel alive when I’m standing outside
I just need to keep my eyes wide open all the time

So if I could, I wanna see you beyond the glass we often speak through
Open your eyes, you can see what we sleep through, every night we’re alive
So if I could, I wanna see you every night we’re alive
So if you could just open your eyes

And tell me why I feel alive when I’m standing outside
I just need to keep my eyes wide open all the time
And tell me why I feel alive when I’m standing outside
I just need to keep my eyes wide open all the time

Tonight, I lie awake without you here beneath the sky
Convinced it’s not enough to hold your picture close to get me by
But I’ll try to reason with the lives we lead and compromise
I’ll start to close my eyes

Tell me why I feel alive when I’m standing outside
I just need to keep my eyes wide open all the time
