Bad Side Of The Moon
Beyond Earth's Glow: Exploring Life's Shadows with Elton John
Lyrics
It seems as though I've lived my life
Feels like my life has been mostly spent
On the bad side of the moon
In a place or situation associated with negativity or hardship
To stir your dregs in sickness still
To mix your leftovers in sickness without proper tools
Without the rustic spoon
Lacking the basic means to address the situation
Common people live with me
Regular, ordinary people share my space
Where the light has never shone
Where positivity or hope hasn’t had a chance
And the hermits flock like hummingbirds
Isolated individuals gather like birds to communicate strangely
To speak in a foreign tongue
Using an unfamiliar language or manner
I'm a light world away
I'm far removed from those who compel me to remain
From the people who make me stay
From those who exert influence to keep me
Sitting on the bad side of the moon
Sitting in a negative or difficult place
I'm a light world away
I'm distant from those who make me stay
From the people who make me stay
From those who enforce my presence
Sitting on the bad side of the moon, yeah
Remaining in a challenging situation
Who's in my life, who's in my life, who's in my life (yeah-eh)
Questioning who holds significance in my life
Who's in my life, who's in my life, who's in my life
Repeating the contemplation of important connections
There ain't no need for watchdogs here
No need for guardians to justify our actions
To justify our ways
We live restricted lives, the main reason for our presence here
We live our life in manacles
Living with restraints or limitations
The main cause of our stay
The primary cause for our prolonged stay
Exiled here from other worlds
Banished or isolated from other realms
My sentence comes too soon
My punishment arrived prematurely
Why should I be made to pay
Questioning why I must endure consequences
On the bad side of the moon
On the unfavorable or difficult side of life
And I'm a light world away
Separated by a vast distance from those enforcing my presence
From the people who make me stay
Away from those compelling me to stay
Sitting on the bad side of the moon
Remaining in a negative or trying situation
And I'm a light world away
Far removed from those who enforce my presence
From the people who make me stay
Distant from those making me stay
Sitting on the bad side of the moon
Staying in a challenging place or circumstance
Who's in my life, who's in my life (yeah-eh), who's in my life (oh)
Reiteration of the query about the significant individuals in one's life
Who's in my life, who's in my life, who's in my life
-Who's in my life, who's in my life, who's in my life
-Who's in my life, who's in my life, who's in my life
-Who's in my life, who's in my life, who's in my life
-Who's in my life, who's in my life, who's in my life
-Who's in my life, who's in my life, who's in my life
-Who's in my life, who's in my life, who's in my life
-Who's in my life, who's in my life, who's in my life (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
-Who's in my life, who's in my life, who's in my life
-Who's in my life, who's in my life, who's in my life
-Who's in my life, who's in my life, who's in my life
