From The Other Side

I kept my mouth shut, I never said a word No single comment about the things you heard Kept in the background I didn't make a sound at all Stayed in the shadows all of the goddam time And I heard nothing coming down the line Kept in the blackout in for the long haul So here we are again Sometimes things never change And from the other side it looks the same Sneaking suspicions in a passive voice Taking commissions without a single choice It's a decision that seems counterfeit As luck would have it, I'm up before the dawn To cleanse the palate of everything that's gone And if it comes back, release it just as quick So here we are again Sometimes things never change And from the other side it looks the same The time to start again Is gonna happen soon You cannot fight the change You're not immune I kept my mouth shut, I never said a word No single comment about the things you heard Kept in the background I didn't make a sound at all Stayed in the shadows all of the goddam time And I heard nothing coming down the line Kept in the blackout in for the long haul So here we are again Sometimes things never change And from the other side it looks the same The time is here at last And now we're staking claims And from the other side it's gonna change
