The Other Side

The Other Side Woodkid

I heard a whisper on my shoulder

Pretending life is worth the fight

O can you hear the song of thunder

When fear strangles a soldier's pride

And on the surface of the waters

Will dance reflections of the fire in the night

I remember cheering from the towers

A face is smiling in the light

I remember the bells the flowers

Those days are dying in the dark

Boy I was shaped for the fury

Now I pay the price

Of the human race's vice

And I was promised

The glorious ending of a knight

But the crown is out of sight

I'm slowly drifting into slumber

'Cos I have lost the force to fight

It's like a cold hand on my shoulder

I'll see you on the other side

And in the arms of endless anger

Will end the story of a soldier in the dark
