I asked God what I'm supposed to be

The stars smiled down on me

God answered in silent reverie

I said a prayer and fell asleep

The gang (minus Tim) at the Tears For Fears gig, Hollywood Bowl, LA, 2 August 2023

reminder that fine on the outside is like THE PERFECT ANGSTY CHILD/ADULT STEDE SONG!!! IT FITS SO WELL.....

I never had that many friends growing up So I learned to be Ok with just me, just me, just me, just me And I'll be fine on the outside

I like to eat in school by myself, anyway So I'll just stay right here Right here, right here, right here And I'll be fine on the outside

So I just sit in my room after hours with the moon And think of who knows my name Would you cry if I died Would you remember my face?

So I left home, I packed up and l moved far away From my past one day And I laughed, I laughed, I laughed, I laughed I sound fine on the outside

Sometimes I feel lost, sometimes I'm confused Sometimes I find that I am not alright And I cry, and I cry, and I cry

Sometimes I feel lost, sometimes I'm confused Sometimes I find that I am not alright And I cry, and I cry, and I cry
