The Other Side
French For Rabbits Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To wash their bodies clean
To wash their minds clean
'Cause they all wanna leave
The waves won't stop you
They won't forgive you
Only you can stop it
Leave your vices at the door
And do the right thing
They're all making excuses
They're all lying through their teeth
Say their pass ruined (?)
Their entire future
But what do they really know
The waves won't stop you
Only you can stop it
Make the right choices
Leave your vices at the door
And I'll wait for you on the other side
I'll wait for you on the other side
The other side, I'll wait for you
I'll wait for you on the other side
The other side
The lyrics of French For Rabbits' song The Other Side exude a sense of disillusionment with the world and a longing for something more. The opening lines depict a group of people running towards the beach in order to wash away their past transgressions and start anew. The mention of wanting to wash their minds clean suggests a need to forget or escape from their internal struggles as well. However, despite the physical and mental cleansing that the beach symbolizes, the waves serve as a reminder that forgiveness cannot be granted so easily. Only an individual themselves can make the right choices and leave behind their negative habits and behaviours.
The second verse of the song reveals a sense of frustration towards those who make excuses and lie to themselves about their situation. They blame their past for ruining their future, but the singer questions what they really know. This could imply that, in reality, it is the individual's own choices and actions that determine their future rather than their past experiences. The repetition of the lines "The waves won't stop you" reinforces this message that ultimately, the power lies within the individual to make positive changes in their life.
The chorus provides a sense of hope and comfort that the singer will be waiting on the other side, presumably on the other side of the struggles or obstacles that the individual is facing. It is a reminder that they are not alone in their journey towards a better future.
Overall, The Other Side is a poignant reflection on the struggle to move on from the past and make positive choices for the future.

[Verse 1]
They're all running to the beach
To wash their bodies clean
To wash their minds clean
'Cause they all wanna leave

O Outro Lado
Eles estão todos a correr para a praia
Para lavar seus corpos limpos
Para lavar suas mentes limpas
Porque todos querem sair
As ondas não vão impedi-lo
Eles não vão te perdoar
Somente você pode pará-lo
Faça as escolhas certas
Deixe seus vícios na porta
E faça a coisa certa
Eles estão todos dando desculpas
Eles estão todos a mentir com os dentes
Diga a sua passagem arruinado
Todo o seu futuro
Mas o que eles realmente sabem
As ondas não vão impedi-lo
Somente você pode pará-lo
Faça as escolhas certas
Deixe seus vícios na porta
E eu vou esperar por você do outro lado
Eu vou esperar por você do outro lado
O outro lado, eu vou esperar por você
Eu vou esperar por você do outro lado
O outro lado

At this very moment in life, there is not a song that makes me feel more conscious of my surroundings and more alive! Every time the chorus comes and I hear those drums pound in the back I go into a trance where I feel indestructible. I am compelled to "do the right thing" as the lyrics say. This woman's voice implores me to develop a sense of urgency to show God that I am willing to persevere and lend a helping hand because a LEADER HAS TO SERVE!
