If you're looking for a fright 

Don't come running to me in the middle of the night 

If you see your future fly by 

Don't come running to me if you need a shoulder to cry 


You know me from the outside in 

You don't care where I'm going or where I've been 

But that's just you 


If the summer brings you round 

Don't come running to me 

If the winter strikes you down 

If the spotlight turns on you 

Don't come running to me if you don't know what to do 


You know me from the outside in 

You don't care where I'm going or where I've been 

But that's just you 


Well by the book you are a fool 

Don't come running to me if you don't know what to do 

You see your life go down the drain 

Don't come running to me if you need to complain 


You know me from the outside in 

You don't care where I'm going or where I've been 

But that's just you 

Ah that's just you
