Inside -Outside

What does it take to live inside
Is there a shelter it provides? 
In case it does, what shall I find
That’ll make me change my tortured mind
Presumably I’m not that kind
Like others do, I go outside 
To change my sight I need to hide
From that notorious inside
But then my time goes running wild
It runs downstairs and climbs too high
Till I’m not able to define 
What’s what, whose voice I hear inside.
