Otherside

Orphans

Otherside
T. Boudreau

It’s a lazy day
Nothing in my way
And I swing and I and I sway just like the laundry out on the line

I hum a little tune
One that reminds me of you
Perhaps a bit too soon since I was just getting used to living this lie

Every once in a while
I get a smile from the other side
Every now and then
I make a friend on the other side

It’s a lonely night
Not a soul in sight
But I try as I might to believe that the blight is on the decline

Am I obsolete?
A little incomplete?
Forever be discrete on the deets that compete for the space in my mind

Every once in a while
I get a smile from the other side
Every now and then
I make a friend on the other side
At least twice a week
I get a peak at the other side
Never know what you’ll find
Blind leading the blind to the other side

And maybe we knew all along
And maybe all it took was this silly song
to show us we were wrong

These are crazy days
No two are the same
trail blaze thru the maze until we finally praise and amaze ourselves

We die alone
We all die alone
But history has shown us that the mystery of loneliness emboldens itself

Every once in a while
I get a smile from the other side
Every now and then
I make amends with the other side
At least twice a week
I sneak a peak at the other side
Ya never know what you’ll find
Blind leading the blind to the other side
