Something better than this
  Someplace I'd like to go
  To let all I've learned
  Tell me what I know
  About the kind of life
  I never thought I'd live
  Till the ugly truth
  Showed me what it did
  
  Let it pass on the side of the road
  What a friend could tell me now
  
  On a borrowed dime
  In different light
  You might see what
  The other side looks like
  In a random room
  Behind an iron door
  Kick an empty can
  Across an empty floor
  
  Let it pass on the side of the road
  What a friend could tell me now
