the other side Lyrics

I miss grey skies over brick hotels

Running wild or sitting silent with you

If we laugh, we laugh

Fill up our lungs with air

We were the bruised broken-hearted kids

Buying time in borrowed clothes

Don't need a reason for anything we do

It's a different kind of melancholy

A couple drinks at least to kill the lonely

But take your time

We're never growing old

You said

"Meet me on the other side

You and I have scars to hide

But we're too young

We don't know what

Is coming, coming, coming for us

But we have bent enough to break"

Now we go dancing

In the middle of a smoke-filled room

And I still hate the way my head speaks louder than I do

But these empty streets sing back to me

Just an echo of sore throat melodies

And 3 AM has never felt so much like home

Like home

Meet me on the other side

(Ahhh)

We can outrun the daylight

(Ahhh)

And we're still young

We don't know what

Is coming, coming, coming for us

But we have bent enough to break

I'd never tell you that I'm breaking down

Saying words like that would only make them truer somehow

We sit among the pretenders and wait for the fireworks

And every night a thousand lights across the river

Pull me closer and closer, so deep into the city

We're restless

But the stars will keep our secrets

Always just out of reach

Meet me on the other side

(Meet me on the other side)

You and I have scars to hide

(You and I have scars to hide)

And we're so young

(We're so young and we don't know)

We don't know what

Is coming, coming, coming for us

But we have bent enough to break

(We have bent to break)

We have bent enough to break

We have bent enough to break
