Otherside - The Living End

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 looking down on the rest

Oh, it’s not real

Oh, it’s not real

He always seemed to have faith

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 otherside, on the otherside

Shit’s always better on the otherside

On the otherside, on the otherside

There’s nothing over there on the otherside

I saw my old friend the other day

Hardly recognized his face

I did my best trying to pretend

But I could see that he’d reached the end

He said, «Do me a favor and don’t look back

Or sit around thinkin' bout what you don’t have»

On the otherside, on the otherside

Shit’s always better on the otherside

On the otherside, on the otherside

There’s nothing over there on the otherside

Oh, it’s not real

Oh, it’s not real

On the otherside, on the otherside

Shit’s always better on the otherside

On the otherside, on the otherside

There’s nothing over there on the otherside

Now my friend’s no longer here

I still remember his words so clear

Do me a favor and don’t look back

Look up around and see what you have
