Maynard said in a acoustic session explaining this song "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."
