Lyrics:

i feel too small
something's gonna burn
sink on you
drunken highways
someone take the wheel

[chorus:]
faded in the blackout you left me in
it's safer on the outside
i'm swimming in
this kerosene it's hard to breathe
statics got me down

i can't sleep
i'm disconnected
everything went wrong
and certain stars
are sad and bruised like
someone's cheating heart

[repeat chorus 3x]

got me down, got me down, got me down
safer on the outside, safer on the outside
safer on the outside

American Hi-Fi Safer On The Outside
