Dolph L. Chaney

ON THE OTHER SIDE

You memorize the story, book, chapter, and verse
I guess you ought to know by now that it pays to rehearse
You greet the television
You eat the indecision
and you make sure it makes it worse

Time will heal the bruises and abuses of the past
You will see, you will break free and ride
on the other side

You try to burn the candle at both bitter ends
You'd rather carry this blue cross than seek out better friends
You think it's not up to you
but I can see right through you
You'd thank the blade as it descends

You toss aside your pride at the blink of a hat
You're driving yourself up a tree like a fireman's cat
You sit there on the loveseat
You say you're just a deadbeat
but we both know better than that
