Lyrics The Living End – Otherside
Text:
I saw an old friend the other day
Been a while since I’d seen his face
He never settled for second best
He stood at the top lookin’ down on the rest
Oh, it’s not real
Oh, it’s not real
He always seemed to have it made
But now the light had begun to fade
And he was stuck in a fight within
Couldn’t come back down from where he’d been
On the other side
On the other side
Seems so much better on the other side
On the other side
On the other side
There’s nothing over there on the other side
I saw my old friend the other day
Hardly recognised his face
I did my best trying to pretend
But I could see that he’d reached the end
He said, «Do me a favour and don’t look back
Don’t sit around thinkin’ about what you don’t have»
On the other side
On the other side
Seems so much better on the other side
On the other side
On the other side
There’s nothing over there on the other side
Oh, it’s not real
Oh, it’s not real
On the other side
On the other side
Seems so much better on the other side
On the other side
On the other side
There’s nothing over there on the other side
Now my friend’s no longer here
I still remember his words so clear
Do me a favour and don’t look back
Just look up around and see what you have
