R.E.M. The Outsiders Lyrics

You took me to the restaurant where we first met,
You knocked a future shock crow-bar upside my head.
I got caught with the stop of the tick-tock, tick-tock clock
When you told me what you have knew.

Lost in the moment, the day that the music stopped --
And I do remember you.

Drawing patterns with a cork on the table-cloth,
Promising volcanic change of plot,
Where will this lead us? -- I'm scared of the storm..
The outsiders are gathering -- a new day's born.

I tried to tell you that I am not afraid --
You looked up and saw it all across my face..
So, am I with you or am I against?
I don't think it's that easy -- we're lost in regret.

Now i'm trying to remember the feeling when the music stopped
When you told me what you have knew.
Lost in the moment, the day that the music stopped --
And I do remember you.

Drawing patterns with a cork on the table-cloth,
Promising volcanic change of plot,
Where does this lead us? -- I'm scared of the storm.
The outsiders are gathering, a new day's born.

Drawing pattern to the cork on the table-cloth,
Promising volcanic change of thought,
Where does this leave us? -- I'm scared of the storm.
The outsiders are gathering -- a new day's born.
The outsiders are gathering -- a new day's born..
The outsiders are gathering...

A man walks away when every muscle says to stay --
How many yesterdays? -- they each weigh heavy..
Who says what changes may come? -- who says what we call home?
I know you see right through me, my luminescence fades,
The dusk provides an antidote, I am not afraid --
I've been a million times, in my mind, and this is really just a technicality,
Frailty, reality..

Uh, it's time to breathe, time to believe, let it go and run towards the sea,
They don't teach that -- they don't know what you mean,
They don't understand -- they don't know what you mean,
They don't get it -- I want to scream,
I want to breathe again, I want to dream,
I want to float a quote from Martin Luther King --
I am not afraid, I am not afraid, I am not afraid..

I am not afraid, I am not afraid, I am not afraid, I am not afraid...
