The Other Side

There’s no way to know what it’s like on the other side
You’ll never know what it’s like ‘til you get there
There is not a contract that is written in black & white
Wrong or right and sooner than we thought, we’ll all be there
Day or night, death doesn’t know or care about time and distance
When your time comes, you’re dead, then you’re gone, so what’s the difference

There’s no way out, there’s no way out, (4x)
    
The reservation is ready, but we don’t know when it is
We’re all going to the other side eventually
There is no guide to get us to the end of the long ride
But sooner than we thought we’ll be all going over to the other side
To the other side, to the other side
There’s no way out, there’s no way out
There’s no way out, there’s no way out

(repeat first verse)

The moon waxed in line with the planets in that time
The mood was chaotic, this is it; it’s the sign of the times
Oh the prophets who can profit; call me, I’ll tell your future for you.
Then, tomorrow will be yesterday’s future today!

Here it comes, just what we’re all waiting to see.
This is it, it’s the turn of the century.
Did you think it would be like this,
Or do you wonder, or even ponder?

So, look all around you, become aware. What do you see?
The emerging creature, a mirror image or maybe fantasy.
Take control; what, from life are you hoping to find?
Only by looking forward, can we leave the rest behind.

Here it comes, just what we’re all waiting to see.
This is it, it’s the turn of the century.
Did you think it would be like this,
Or, do you wonder, or even ponder?

Here it comes, just what we’re all waiting to see.
This is it, it’s the turn of the century.
Did you think it would be like this,
Or, do you wonder, or even ponder,
About the future for you and me?
