The Other Side
If there was no other side this side would have never existed
I believe there is the other side where they all go
If the other side is how I imagine then I would not leave without you
I want to be with you now and for forever
If you decided to leave please go with me
I want to go where you go
If we go can the stones will be full of our names
I will write on everything that I will see
Where are wise men to advise me!
The sheep came but it was slaughtered and went to the other side
Is it the only holy who are to go to the other side
But why should I leave what I have devoted my life too
No this is not the message that I heard from those who are gone
Day in day out I see the same sun shining over the horizons
Only what the eye sees is what it’s supposed to see
Why are they not coming back to tell us more about that side
How long will this carry on; if it’s a cycle than mine
Will forever lies here with you and;
Shall end not like the others
