Other Side

I don't let myself win
I sink even though I can swim
And if you try to save me, I'll just pull you in
I build it high, then watch it fall
An architect of dreams who destroys it all
The only cheer is this drink in my hand
Each sip pulls me deeper like quicksand

Just when the sun begins to rise, I close my eyes (I close my eyes)
Block out the light until my spirit dies

Trying to get to the other side
Burnt down all the bridges
Far away from the other side
I'm stuck in the wreckage
Can't hear my cries, I'm buried deep
Under promises I couldn't keep

I know I'm running out of lifelines (lifelines)
Getting older, I've wasted so much time
Spent forever ignoring all the signs
(oh wooh oh) Away out, I may never find
(oh wooh oh) How I wish I could hit rewind (rewind, hit rewind)
Feels like I've been left behind

Just when the sun begins to rise, I close my eyes (I close my eyes)
Block out the light until my spirit dies

Trying to get to the other side
Burnt down all the bridges
Far away from the other side
I'm stuck in the wreckage
Can't hear my cries, I'm buried deep
Under promises I couldn't keep

I know you're waiting (I know you're waiting)
Waiting for me on the other side
On the other side (On the other side)

Just when the sun begins to rise, I close my eyes (I close my eyes)
Block out the light until my spirit dies

Trying to get to the other side
Burnt down all the bridges
Far away from the other side
I'm stuck in the wreckage
Can't hear my cries, I'm buried deep
Under promises I couldn't keep
