side of the road lyrics

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

A borrowed dime in different light
You might see what the other side looks like
In a random room, 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
