Dismemberment Plan The Other Side Lyrics

The Other Side Lyrics

There are times when you will not like the sound of my voice 

there are days when a warm look from a strange face will make me forget my name


there'll be nights when you wonder where the party's at now 

and you wonder why you never split this beat scene when a higher life awaits


there'll be days when you don't know how you picked the wrong life 

in a second when it's over in our own minds -- and it's gone without a sound


there are fights that'll hear things that we know we don't mean 

and we say 'em 'cos we don't know what we both want and we can't get to the
other side 



There are years that'll fly like wind across a flood plain 

unaware of its own weight, free of friction, and immune to its own speed 

there are weeks that'll crawl like slugs across a hot road 

only moving 'cos it just don't know how to stop on a search for God knows what


and there are songs that'll make your skull ring like a dropped cup 

Resonating with the reasons why you worked through -- and the reasons why you
stayed 



For the long nights when you found a new resolve that I never knew was there


For the cold eye and the warm embrace now 

For the righteous vibe that I need like the air I breathe 



There are times when you'll think you've got my funny number figured out 

there'll be days when I don't feel like I ever knew you all that well and there
are lines, drawn around, behind, above and over everyone 

in an effort to figure out the place and time, the right, the wrong, the yours,
the mine, and I'll be damned if I feel like I will ever know anything 

but if don't keep moving on that last hill, 

we'll never know what's on the other side
