Brandi Carlile - Looking Out

I do not own the rights to the music or pictures used in this video.

-Lyrics-
I went out looking for the answers
And never left my town
I'm no good at understanding
But I'm good at standing ground

And when I asked a corner preacher
I couldn't hear him for my youth
Some people get religion
Some people get the truth

I never get the truth
I never get the truth

I know the darkness pulls on you
But it's just a point of view
When you're outside looking in
You belong to someone

And when you feel like giving in
Or the coming of the end
Like your heart could break in two
Someone loves you

I laid this suitcase on my chest
So I could feel somebody's weight
And I laid you to rest
Just to feel the give and take

I got a new interpretation
And it's a better point of view
While you were looking for a landslide
I was looking out for you

I was looking out for you
Someone's looking out for you

I know the darkness pulls on you
But it's just a point of view
When you're outside looking in
You belong to someone

And when you feel like giving in
Or the coming of the end
Like your heart could break in two
Someone loves you

I am afraid of crossing lines
I am afraid of flying blind
Afraid of inquiring minds
Afraid of being left behind

I close my eyes, I think of you
I take a step, I think of you
I catch my breath, I think of you
I cannot rest, I think of you

My one and only wrecking ball
And you're crashing through my walls
When you're outside looking in
You belong to someone

And when you feel like giving in
Or the coming of the end
Like your heart could break in two
Someone loves you, yeah

i freakin love this song!!!!!!!! I can't wait to see her the 15th !!!!!!

[Rhymnir]

@kathrynrun2you Lucky! I wish I could see her live, but the closest she'll be to where I live is 300 miles away, kind of sucks. She'll be great though, I guarantee it.

[kathrynrun2you]

@Rhymnir She was amazing!

[Rhymnir]

@kathrynrun2you Was there really any doubt? Still jealous, though.

[Em905]

It's really rare in this time period to find brilliant lyricists. This song is pure poetry.

[saiditohe1]

She hasn't got the praise and fame she deserves.

But I get that feeling she didn't want to be the center of the worlds music stage.

She's to much of a normal human being.
