Outside Looking In
Beyond Illusions: Exploring the Search for Meaning
Lyrics
It looked so good from the outside, I couldn't wait to join the crowd.
Observing something appealing from the outside, eager to be part of it.
It all looked different on the inside,
Perceiving a different reality once inside the situation.
It must have been my imagination,
Considering that the initial perception might have been a product of imagination.
I felt so sure that was where I wanted to be...
Feeling certain that being in that situation was desired.
I thought I'd get out of the city, I took a trip down to the sea.
Deciding to leave the city for a trip to the sea.
I didn't stay too long 'cause there was nothing there but sky and ocean,
Leaving quickly due to a lack of substance in the new environment.
Oh yeah, it must have been my imagination,
Reflecting on whether the previous attraction was merely imaginary.
I really thought that was where I wanted to be...
Realizing the sea might not be the desired place to be.
Looking for something that might have some meaning,
Searching for something meaningful.
Looking for something that might make me feel alive.
Seeking an experience that brings a sense of vitality.
Looking around for the right situation
Exploring for the right circumstance or environment.
Where I can believe what's happening right in front of my eyes.
Desiring a situation where belief aligns with what's witnessed.
I think I'll stay in one position, and just leave well enough alone.
Choosing to stay in a stable position and avoid unnecessary changes.
I'm never satisfied 'til I've been disillusioned,
Feeling discontented until experiencing disillusionment.
Oh yeah, it must be my imagination,
Considering that dissatisfaction might be a product of imagination.
I always think there's a better place to be...
Always thinking there's a better place to be.
Looking for something that might have some meaning,
Continuing the search for something meaningful.
Looking for something that might make me feel alive.
Seeking an experience that brings a feeling of being alive.
Looking around for the right situation
Exploring for the right circumstance or environment.
Where I can believe what's happening right in front of my eyes.
Desiring a situation where belief aligns with what's witnessed.
