Within Without

(album: The Ozark Mountain Daredevils - 1973)

Now I'm looking out my house
And what I see doesn't please me
People going here, going there
Where's that leave me
Now they're coming in my door
To explore what's running around in me
But it's not me that they'll finally find
Behind the smile on my face
When I tell them they have
All lost the race to the end
'Cause they've passed themselves within
Without

Now I'm running from my house
'Cause my house doesn't please me
People coming in, going out
They don't see me
Now I'm flying through the air
I'm not scared of people all underneath
In a heap, asking how'd we get to here
From there where our lives had some meaning
And all the days weren't the same
We played no games
And we knew ourselves within
Without
