Lyrics
Looking ahead, not far away, someday soon but not today things may get better
Looking forward to the future, but it's not happening soon; improvement may come eventually.
Things may get worse depending on who gets there first
The outcome (better or worse) depends on who takes the initiative or control.
Nothing in common, nothing will change
No common ground, and there's resistance to change.
Together we'll go our separate ways
Parting ways together, moving in separate directions.
Nothing to stop us from cavin' in
There's nothing preventing a collapse or failure.
Someone's gotta lose when someone wins
In a competition, one's victory leads to another's loss.
Look at the world you're livin' in
Observing the challenging world one lives in.
Someday you'll have to pick a side
A future decision will require choosing a stance or position.
For the rest of your life who's on your side?
Throughout life, it's essential to know who supports you.
A voice in the dark, a light in the haze
A guide in the darkness, a beacon in confusion.
A flame that burns then fades away
A passionate force that diminishes over time.
Alone in the night a ship lost at sea
Isolation in challenging circumstances, like a ship lost at sea.
A state of emergency with no way of knowing what's comin' next
Living in a state of emergency with an uncertain future.
Survival of who fits in best, looking for answers but where to begin
Survival favors those who conform; seeking answers but unsure where to start.
We all wanna know how this one ends, look at the world you're livin' in
Curiosity about the resolution of current circumstances.
Someday you'll have to pick a side
A future decision will require choosing a stance or position (repeated).
For the rest of your life who's on your side?
Throughout life, it's essential to know who supports you (repeated).
(Look at the world you're livin' in)
Observing the challenging world one lives in (repeated).
Who's on your side?
Questioning who stands with you in challenging times.
(Do you know who you wrap again?)
Uncertain about the loyalty of those around you.
Who's on your side?
Seeking support when tears are justified.
(And your tears are justified)
Questioning who supports you when facing emotional challenges.
Who's on your side?
Further emphasis on identifying supportive individuals.
This isn't make believe
Asserting that the situation is real, not imaginary.
A faded picture show
Comparing the situation to a faded and distant memory.
As we drown you're slowly lettin' go, look at the world you're livin' in
As one drowns, they reluctantly release control; observing the challenging world.
Someday you'll have to pick a side
A future decision will require choosing a stance or position (repeated).
For the rest of your life who's on your side?
Throughout life, it's essential to know who supports you (repeated).
(Look at the world you're livin' in)
Observing the challenging world one lives in (repeated).
Who's on your side?
Questioning who stands with you in challenging times.
(Do you know who you wrap again?)
Uncertain about the loyalty of those around you.
Who's on your side?
Seeking support when tears are justified.
(And your tears are justified)
Questioning who supports you when facing emotional challenges.
Who's on your side, who's on your side?
Reiteration of the critical question regarding supportive individuals.
