On The Other Side

The cynics share the conspiracy theory They say its a hoax and a lie There's a place for the stupid, the weak and the weary When we meet on the other side The PM's advisor rolls out the numbers These people we can sacrifice They'll be spreadsheets and charts and a black roll of thunder When we meet on the other side On the other side, on the other side The sun will be high in a picture book sky When we meet on the other side She lived on the edge of knowledge and beauty The day to day news passed her by In time she'll reflect the neglect of her duty When we meet on the other side He cast aside every government order He won't give in till he dies We'll bury his body over the border When we meet on the other side On the other side, on the other side The sun will be high in a picture book sky When we meet on the other side For those of us living this bad dream fever Love doesn't sing but it cries It cries out to all the hopeless believers We meet on the other side On the other side , on the other side The sun will be high in a picture book sky When we meet on the other side
