How long how long will I slide

Separate my side I don't

I don't believe it's bad

Slit my throat it's all I ever

I heard your voice through a photograph

I thought it up and brought up the past

Once you know you can never go back

I gotta take it on the other side

Centuries are what it meant to me

A cemetery where I marry the sea

Stranger things could never change my mind

I gotta take it on the other side

Take it on the other side

Take it on take it on

How long how long will I slide

Separate my side I don't

I don't believe it's bad

Slit my throat it's all I ever

Pour my life into a paper cup

The ashtray's full and I'm spillin' my guts

She wants to know am I still a slut

I've got to take it on the other side

Scarlet starlet and she's in my bed

A candidate for a soul mate bled

Push the trigger and I pull the thread I gotta take it on the other side

Take it on the other side

Take it on

Take it on

How long how long will I slide

Separate my side I don't

I don't believe it's bad

Slit my throat it's all I ever

Turn me on take me for a hard ride

Burn me out leave me on the other side

I yell and tell it that it's not my friend

I tear it down I tear it down

And then it's born again

How long how long will I slide

Separate my side I don't

I don't believe it's bad

Slit my throat it's all I ever

How long I don't I don't believe it's bad

Slit my throat it's all I ever
