How long how long will I slide Separate my side I don't
I don't believe it's bad Slit my throat It's all I ever
I heard your voice through a photograph I thought it up it brought up the past
Once you know you can never go back I've got to take it on the otherside
Centuries are what it meant to me A cemetery where I married the sea Stranger things could never change my mind
I've got to take it on the otherside
Chorus:
Pour my life into a paper cup
The ashtray's full and I'm spillin' my guts She wants to know am I still a slut
I've got to take it on the otherside
Scarlet starlet and she's in my bed
A candidate for my soul mate bled
Push the trigger and pull the thread I've got to take it on the otherside
Chorus;
Turn me on take me for a hard ride Burn me out leave me on the otherside I yell and tell it that It's not my friend I tear it down I tear it down And then it's born again
