flwrs., leorinda - Other Side Lyrics

You believe you're something different
You believe you need something different
You try and you try to be someone else
Raking up more substance to add to yourself
With whoever fits inside of your mess
What makes you think you could comprehend
The things so out of reach?
How foolish and naive

What is it that's under your skin?
You're just a shell of who you are within
You take the pain of someone else
To try and make yourself seem special

What's so great about the other side?
You just can't face the you you're running from
You get caught up in things you can't understand
To make up for the fact
Your individuality never existed
Isn't that just ironic?
You're so adamant that you're not like the rest
Yet you're exactly the same

Do you feel special?
Do you feel accomplished?
Fucking with everyone else as your escape
Knowing deep down things will never change
The reality of who you are will stay the same
Are you that special?
What did you accomplish?
Isn't it strange to pretend that you're insane?
Hiding the truth to run from the shame
If you're turning things around
Then you better show your face

What's so great about the other side?
You just can't face the you you're running from
You get caught up in things you can't understand
To make up for the fact
Your individuality never existed
Isn't that just ironic?
You're so adamant that you're not like the rest
Yet you're exactly the same
