[Verse 1]
And a jet could take me far
But I couldn't escape this feeling
That I don’t know where I'm bound
If I did get away
Am I trapped or just worn down?
I work hard and miss my family
And the wheels of industry
Keep on grinding away
[Chorus]
This is life on the outside, yeah
This is life on the outside, yeah
This is life on the outside, yeah
[Verse 2]
As the engines start to roar
We keep working to keep this feeling
We're not human anymore
We’re just ticking away
The machine is on our side
As it was, as it's in the beginning
It's becoming self-aware
And we're fading away
[Chorus]
This is life on the outside, yeah
This is life on the outside, yeah
This is life on the outside, yeah
[Instrumental]
[Outro]
This is life on the outside, yeah
This is life on the outside, yeah
This is life on the outside, yeah
