Outside from Pale Wallace by Pale Wallace

Outside

You’re in the backyard you’re by the doghouse
Smoking your cigarettes and thinking about

How you’ve lived your life since you’ve been outside
Where you thought you’d be inside of a year

You’re mother’s calling pretend you don’t hear
Make like there’s cotton stuffed in your ears

She’ll never forgive you for all that you’ve done
You’ll never be good you’ll always be wrong

You climb the old maple and sit in your tree fort
And all that’s below you’ll just ignore

You’ll fall asleep and when you awake
All your mistakes will be unmade

Would it be different would you stay clear
Jump past the pitfalls keep it all clean

You can’t be certain you can’t say for sure
All of the wrong things hold such allure

When you wake at night sometimes you grow scared
You think you’re in prison but you’re not there

She’ll never forgive you for all that you’ve done
You’ll never be good you’ll always be wrong
