Lyrics - The Other Side v.2.5

5am tweaks...

Light's grown dim, street's cold and bare,
Shadow by my door — I see you there,
I just stare — it's been a while,
Your eyes're softer now,
But it's the same old smile—
I won't crumble, I won't fall,
I'll stay strong, keep standing tall,
And turn away, slam the door.

I hear you callin' from the other side,
Stirrin' up mem'ries, that cut like knives,
Of the nights you cheated,
The games you played,
All the times you walked away,

Sat here shaking — phone in hand,
Why I listened — don't understand,
The blinking light — was a siren's call,
Your sweet voice once made me fall—
And it's the same old lies
In all the words you sent,
Promises made but never meant,
No shame, no guilt — you won't repent.

We were never good, and I paid the price,
But I moved on — rebuilt my life,
I won't break; my pride survived,
So take your poison, and say goodbye.

I heard you callin' from the other side,
Stirrin' up mem'ries, that cut like knives,
Of lipstick stains,
And her cheap perfume,
And the day I walked away.

You made me stumble, when I gave my all,
Still don't know how you could be so cruel,
Pretending I misunderstood,
But those wounds won't heal —
Just ’cause you say they should.

Might hear your whispers on the breeze,
But I'm no longer on my knees,
I'm much stronger now,
I've found my path,
Made it through your aftermath—
I couldn't hate you, I know I tried
Said I didn't love you, and knew I lied,
It's bittersweet, but I've few regrets,
From my memories of a different life,
And that perfect ending we didn't get.

I hear you callin' from the other side,
I won't flinch, I've closed that door,
I see you there and smile, soft and small
From the other side (Hear you calling)

On the other side.
