Lyrics:

You've got a dangerous background
And everything you've dreamed of
Yeah, you're the Dark Angel
It don't show when you break up

And I'm the one who oughta know
Yeah, I'm the one left in the dust
Oh, I'm the broken-hearted fool
Who was never quite enough

I'm an insider
I been burned by the fire
Oh, and I've had to live
With some hard promises
I've crawled through the briars
I'm an insider

It's a circle of deception
It's a hall of strangers
It's a cage without a key
You can feel the danger

And I'm the one who oughta know
Yeah, I'm the one you couldn't trust
Oh, I'm the lonely, silent one
I'm the one left in the dust

I'm an insider
I been burned by the fire
Yeah, and I've had to live
With some hard promises
I've crawled through the briars
I'm an insider

Well, I'll bet you're his masterpiece
I'll bet you're his self-control
Yeah, you'll become his legacy
His quiet world of white and gold

And I'm the one who oughta know
Yeah, I'm the one you left to rust
Not one of your twisted friends
I'm the one you couldn't love

I'm an insider
I been burned by the fire
Oh, and I've had to live
With some hard promises
I've crawled through the briars
I'm an insider
I'm an insider
