Lyrics

Sometimes I feel like I'm just wasting time Looking for another side Sometime I feel like I'm just losing my mind 'cause there ain't No other side Sometimes I'm just spinning my wheels, ain't no big deal Morning, there's another side Sometimes I feel like I'm just standing in place, ain't no real race And ain't no other side Life is like a circle and you end up where you started You end up where you started If you end up where you started, ain't no other side Yeah, but if life is like a curtain that I'm 90% certain that I'm looking through at something Yes, I'm almost touching something on the other side Yeah, the opposite of new is old The opposite of young is old Seems like, seem like everything, everything has got another side Yeah, but young ones want to be old ones Old ones know what they would do if they was young ones People ain't, people ain't never really satisfied Folks ain't never satisfied If life is like a mirror then the nearer you get clearer You can see it so much clearer Feel like you know about the other side Yes and my friends all swear they know Friends all swear they know What I should do with my life How I should run my life What should be happening with my life They're on the other side They're on the outside I'm on the inside They're on the outside I'm on the inside, yes And things always look so much better from the other side Four O'clock in the morning They don't know All the things I been needing They don't know I'm breaking out in a sweat And they don't know Feeling bad and they don't know Feeling down and they don't know Feeling down and they don't know They don't know the other side I need to go home Momma could change it Daddy could help me Yes, I could go home Yeah, Momma don't need to see me this way Know me this way Touch me this way Love me this way Find me this way I can't go home I'm saying I don't want to call him I don't want to know him I don't want to need him I don't want to, I don't want to feel it I don't want to know, I don't wanna know I don't want to know, I don't want to know But I know, know know... Hey, home Yeah so I say tomorrow Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow Hey, I'm going home Yeah but tomorrow ain't coming Tomorrow ain't coming, tomorrow ain't coming Tomorrow will always where it was Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow Yeah I need to go home Maybe I could start all over, start all over Start all over, start all over, start all over Yes I'd like to start all over at home Without the whispers Without the whispers Hanging on me Pulling on me, rolling with me Pulling on me, yeah Yes, I'd like to go home Without the whispers
