The Other Side |
| Sometimes I feel like I’m just wasting time |
| Looking for another side |
| Sometime I feel like I’m losing my mind ‘cause there ain’t |
| No other side |
| Sometimes I’m just spinning my wheels, ain’t no big deal |
| Morning, there’s another side |
| Sometimes I feel like I’m just standing in place, ain’t no real race |
| Ain’t no other side |
| Life is like a circle and you end up where you started |
| If you end up where you started ain’t no other side |
| Yeah, but if life is like a curtain that I’m 90% certain that I’m looking |
| through at something |
| Yes, I’m almost touching something on the other side |
| Yeah, the opposite of new is old |
| The opposite of young is old |
| Seems like everything has got another side |
| Yeah, but young ones want to be old ones |
| Old ones know what they would do if they was young ones |
| People ain’t never really satisfied |
| People ain’t never satisfied |
| If life is like a mirror then the nearer you get clearer |
| You can see it so much clearer |
| Feel like you know about the other side |
| My friends all swear that they know |
| What I should do with my life |
| How I should run my life |
| What should be happening with my life |
| They’re on the other side |
| They’re on the outside |
| I’m on the inside |
| Things always look so much better on the other side |
| Four O’clock in the morning |
| They don’t know |
| All the things I been needing |
| They don’t know |
| Breaking out in a sweat |
| And they don’t know |
| Feeling down |
| And they don’t know |
| They don’t know the other side |
| I need to go home |
| Momma could change it |
| Daddy could help me |
| Yes, I could go home |
| Yeah, Momma don’t need to see me this way |
| Know me this way |
| Touch me this way |
| Love me this way |
| Find me this way |
| I can’t go home |
| I’m saying |
| I don’t want to call him |
| I don’t want to know him |
| I don’t want to need him |
| I don’t want to feel it |
| I don’t want to know |
| But I know, know know |
| Hey, home |
| So I say tomorrow |
| Tomorrow |
| I’m going home |
| Tomorrow ain’t coming |
| Tomorrow will always where it was |
| Tomorrow |
| I need to go home |
| Maybe I could start all over at home |
| Without the whispers |
| Hanging on me |
| Pulling on me, rolling with me |
| Pulling on me |
| Yes, I’d like to go home |
| Without the whispers |
