About This Track

Maynard said in a acoustic session explaining this song and he said…”I had a friend who had some chemical problems. I ended up meeting his brother and his brother was so out of touch with what he was going through…so this song is kinda sung through the perspective of the brother who doesn’t understand what his loved one is going through and in a way has no compassion for what he is going through… this song is called the outsider because that brother is standing on the outside of a understanding and doesn’t get it. This song is from the perspective of someone who is ignorant and doesn’t have the time or patience to understand what their loved one is going through.”

    Saw this live in Berkeley... definitely one of the greatest live musical experiences of my life thus far.

    Slipkn0tGuy, disappointed in what way exactly? Not that it's vaguely important... most things on the internet are blown out of context anyway. "Disconnect and self-destruct one bullet at a time", amazing lyrics!

    Whenever I hear songs like this, I think of Beavis and Butthead head-banging...
