Outsider

If you're an outsider, then just like that - as an outsider,
even if you're there alone, crying and feeling anxious,
someday people will follow you
If people keep asking who am I,
surely I won't regret it, someday when I look back

No matter what you do,
everything requires a degree,
such is the society
But I oppose the existence of such form,
this age which we hurry in is new
The impatient feeling - let it go
Go up in your own way of doing things
Push down your impatience, take it slow,
make you strong, disciplines you

Am I strange? There is no place for me here
Don't conclude on just one changed thing
I'm getting stuck in only my growing story
I want even the insiders to understand it

When I look around, my friends and everyone is on that side
The guy who I was in love with is not here either
My dearest mama and papa who have raised me,
I wonder if one day they will smile and approve of me

If you're an outsider, then just like that - as an outsider,
even if you're there alone, crying and feeling anxious,
someday people will follow you
If people keep asking who am I,
surely I won't regret it, someday when I look back

Yes, I'm (an) outsider,
wanna make them upside down
An outsider who sticks out,
wanna make things inside out
Because I'm disconnected from the mainstream,
there are no rules that tie me down
I can become a bit stronger from the times I cried

I don't fit in over there,
but over here I don't take on their colors
who am I? I'm at a threshold
I don't want to attach names to myself,
because it can't be helped; I'm a new type
A new road opens, my life
Until my life ends, forever
I will fight at night like an outsider

Am I strange? There is no place for me here
Don't conclude on just one changed thing
I'm getting stuck in only my growing story
I want even the insiders to understand it

When I look around, my friends and everyone is on that side
The guy who I was in love with is not here either
My dearest mama and papa who have raised me,
I wonder if one day they will smile and approve of me

If you're an outsider, then just like that - as an outsider,
even if you're there alone, crying and feeling anxious,
someday people will follow you
If people keep asking who am I,
surely I won't regret it, someday when I look back

Yes, I'm (an) outsider,
wanna make them upside down
An outsider who sticks out,
wanna make things inside out
Because I'm disconnected from the mainstream,
there are no rules that tie me down
I can become a bit stronger from the times I cried
