Lyrics The Other Side of Town - Michael Malarkey

The Other Side of Town

Yeah you got a light
She’s smoking again
And our whole past is here
Don’t open the door
It’s well and known
Like an ocean of sick
But I still pay the rent
And still the question hangs around
What’s on the other side of town
Are there phonelines there
So I can call you in the morning
If I change my mind
The chances are
I’m not going anywhere
The grass is never green if you’re colorblind
And still the question hangs around
What’s on the other side of town
Out in the backyard I see skeletons
Reminded me of a broken state of man
Would it be the same there
Would it change a thing
Would you love me again
Would we dance again
Would we touch again
Or just go back to sleep like friends
And still the question hangs around
What’s on the other side of town
I see the darkness and I see the light
But out of control like a firefly
And still the question hangs around
What’s on the other side of town
