The Other Side Lyrics

The Other Side lyrics

i walk into the room
you don't have to scream i can hear you
bad trip, the
needle sticks
you get your kicks from confrontation
i try to make it
past
i don't wanna get into it right now
can't this family have one
day
to get away from all the pain

and through the night i see the
light
shining from the neighbor's windows
i dream of life where i'm
safe
in a home where i am not alone
some day i will lay me down
on the
grass where everything is greener
it always seems so good on the other
side

i'm sick of all the heat
you can taste the hate in the
air
running through this family, uncomfortably
it's burning me
is
anybody there
in your eyes there's nothing to see
just because your
dreams have died
don't drag me down, i've still got
mine

[chorus]

neighbor boy runs up to me, his eyes all black and
blue
i say what happened to you boy, he said my daddy flew
off the hook
cos i was playin too loud
i guess he couldn't hear the tv
he said son i'm
a teach you a lesson
and then he .... and then he....

maybe it's not
so good on the other side
maybe it's not so good on the other side
but it
always seems so good, on the other side
it always looks so good .... it
always seems so good
