Side of the road

Something better than this
someplace i'd like to go
to let all i've learned
tell me what i know
about the kind of life
i never thought i'd live
till the ugly truth
showed me what it did
Let it pass on the side of the road
what a friend could tell me now
On a borrowed dime
in different light
you might see what
the other side looks like
in a random room
behind an iron door
kick an empty can
across an empty floor
Let it pass on the side of the road
what a friend could tell me now
