The Other Side
Reflections of Moving On
Lyrics
Let's take a second to press rewind
Reflecting on the past and wanting to go back in time.
I've laid awake, made mistakes, said some things that keep me up at night
Regretting mistakes and words said, causing sleepless nights.
Picture perfect excuse for a weak attempt, a false sense of time
Describing a feeble excuse and a distorted sense of time.
I let it be know, I burned out within
Acknowledging burnout and internal exhaustion.
The seasons are dead and this world won't spin
Expressing a sense of stagnation and life's lack of vitality.
It tore me apart, my hope had an end
Feeling emotionally torn, losing hope.
A bottle of red that is gone again
Referencing consuming alcohol as a coping mechanism.
Because I know I look fine
Maintaining a facade of looking fine despite inner struggles.
I swore I could just get by
Believing in the ability to endure challenges.
You should take your time to read my mind
Encouraging understanding by delving into thoughts.
From the other side
Looking at situations from a different perspective.
Wasted our time with empty words that filled my veins
Regretting wasting time on meaningless words.
Numbed me up with my favorite lies so I can't see
Describing self-deception with comforting lies.
The things that you hid, swore you never did
Confronting hidden actions and promises broken.
Laughed it up inside behind the mask of a broken grin
Masking pain behind a broken smile.
It just makes sense why I'm so used to, getting over you
Understanding the pattern of moving on from relationships.
Because I know I look fine
Maintaining the appearance of being fine despite inner turmoil.
I swore I could just get by
Believing in the ability to overcome difficulties.
You should take your time to read my mind
Encouraging understanding by delving into thoughts (repeated).
From the other side
Looking at situations from a different perspective (repeated).
Just deny and don't depend
Advising to deny and avoid dependency.
Reminisce or just play pretend
Suggesting nostalgia or pretending to escape reality.
I know I'll be fine with just me and I
Expressing self-sufficiency and independence.
From the other side
Looking at situations from a different perspective (repeated).
I'm all I've got and I'm all that you'll ever need
Affirming self-worth and completeness.
You'll deny that with an apology and what's left of me
Expecting denial with an apology, acknowledging personal decline.
I'm all I've got and I'm all that you'll ever need
Reiterating self-worth and completeness (repeated).
You'll deny that with an apology and what's left of me
Expecting denial with an apology, acknowledging personal decline (repeated).
I'm all I've got and I'm all that you'll ever need
Reiterating self-worth and completeness (repeated).
You'll deny that with an apology and what's left of me
Expecting denial with an apology, acknowledging personal decline (repeated).
It just makes sense why I'm so used to, getting over you
Understanding the pattern of moving on from relationships (repeated).
