Lyrics The Living End

The Living End

Otherside

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
