Californication - Otherside lyrics

rate me

How long, how long will I slide?<br />

Separate my side<br />

I don’t, I don’t believe it’s bad<br />

Slit my throat, it’s all I ever<br />

<br />

I heard your voice through a photograph<br />

I thought it up it, brought up the past<br />

Once you know you can never go back<br />

I gotta take it on the other side<br />

<br />

The centuries are what it meant to me<br />

A cemetery where I marry the sea<br />

The stranger thing will never change my mind<br />

I gotta take it on the other side<br />

Take it on the other side<br />

Take it on, take it on<br />

<br />

How long, how long will I slide?<br />

Separate my side<br />

I don’t, I don’t believe it’s bad<br />

Slit my throat, it’s all I ever<br />

<br />

Pour my life into a paper cup<br />

The ashtray’s full and I’m spillin’ my guts<br />

She wants to know, am I still a slut?<br />

I gotta take it on the other side<br />

<br />

Scarlet, starlet and she’s in my bed<br />

A candidate for the soul mate bled<br />

Push the trigger and pull the thread<br />

I gotta take it on the other side<br />

Take it on the other side<br />

Take it on, take it on<br />

<br />

How long, how long will I slide?<br />

Separate my side<br />

I don’t, I don’t believe it’s bad<br />

Slit my throat, it’s all I ever<br />

<br />

Turn me on, take me for a hard ride<br />

Burn me out, leave me on the other side<br />

I yell and tell it that it’s not my friend<br />

I tear it down, I tear it down and then it’s born again<br />

<br />

How long, how long will I slide?<br />

Separate my side<br />

I don’t, I don’t believe it’s bad<br />

Slit my throat, it’s all I ever<br />

<br />

Hey, I don’t, I don’t believe it’s bad<br />

Slit my throat, it’s all I ever
