Insider Lyrics

You've got a dangerous background And everything you dreamed of Yeah, you're the dark angel It don't show when you break up
And I'm the one who ought to 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've 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 Oh, it's a cage without a key You can feel the danger
And I'm the one who ought to 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
Oh, I'm an insider, I've been burned by the fire And I've had to live with some hard promises I've crawled through the briars I'm an insider
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 ought to 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've 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
