On This Side

They say they'll always say
You walk too fast in front
Slow down there's easier ways
Hell, stay behind with us

And what's easier than worth doin'
It's cause enough for us
We're just dishes in the dining room
That no one is to touch

And by the curses I've eaten
I stick with all that are stuck
'Til tossed away and conditioned
I'll dig my way through the dust

Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh

By now I know my rights will outweigh them
But I see no way to evade them
They'd say my name and I'd obey them
And they'll ask for more and I'll pay them

They laughed back when I tried to dance with you
Cause they tied my left to my right shoe
They tied my left to my right shoe

Ride on my sailors
Deep in my mind
I've always believed in you
Throw me a line

You can't swim in the shallow side
And you can't run through time
We'll always be looking backwards
Stuck on this side
On this side
On this side
