Smile Empty Soul - The Other Side


I walk into the room, you don't have to scream I can hear you
Bad trip the needle sticks, you get your fix from confrontation.
I try to make it past. I don't want to 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 window.
I dream of life where I'm safe i a home where I am not alone
Someday I will Lay me down on the grass where everything is greener
It always seemed 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.

And through the night I see the light
shining from the neighbor's window.
I dream of life where I'm safe i a home where I am not alone
Someday I will Lay me down on the grass where everything is greener
It always seemed so good on the other side.

Neighbor boy runs up to me, his eye's all black and blue.
I said, "What happened to you boy?"
He said, "My daddy flew off the hook 'cause I was playing too loud,
Guess he couldn't hear the TV,
he said, 'son I'm gonna teach you a lesson'
And then he, and then he flew."

Maybe it's not so good, on the other side.
Maybe it's not so good, on the other side.
It always seemed so good on the other side.
