I'll See You on the Other Side

Had a thought one day
That my life was not supposed to be this way
Caught up in a summer love until I left her at the altar
So I could travel across the country and figure out myself
She didn't see things my way
But she was looking at something else
Because I saw myself more likely in a coffin
And I would smile and say things you hate
But it's okay we'll meet again on the other side

(Calm down now baby)
(Think of what you're saying and doing)
(Reflecting on how you were to me)

Choking on the words I need to explain what I am feeling
I think it's called anxiety
But oh God, it's killing me
And I feel it every time that you're around
I take pictures every night and it doesn't help myself
But I like the attention that I get when everyone is sick of it
And I'll run away again
But I'll still find you on the other side

(Justification for suffocation)
(You're doing it again to someone else)
(Just like you did to me)

(Talk all you want)
(It wasn't meant to be)

Your words are like a hammer
And they won't build me up
I'll take it all to heart
But there's a lot to do, I don't know where to start

(Now it's all said and done)
(It's been said more than once)
(We have a chance to start again)
(And move on again)

And I'll run into the sun
Where I'll boil and burn
And forget the damage that we've done
You know how far I'll go to get away from you
I'll see you on the other side
