Otherside
Funkerman vs. Red Hot Chili Peppers Lyrics

How long, how long will I slide?
How much longer will I keep numbing my feelings and avoiding my problems?

Separate my side, I don't
I'm trying to separate myself from a part of me that I don't like or don't understand.

I don't believe it's bad
I want to believe that this separation is for the best and will lead to something good.

Slit my throat it's all I ever
I feel like giving up and letting my pain consume me is the only way out.

I heard your voice through a photograph
A picture of us brought back memories and made me think of you.

I thought it up and brought up the past
I started reminiscing about the past and how things used to be.

Once you know you can never go back
After experiencing a certain feeling or way of life, it's impossible to forget or return to a time before that.

I gotta take it on the other side
I need to face my fears and deal with the situation from a different perspective.

Centuries are what it meant to me
The past has left a lasting impression on me that feels like it's lasted for centuries.

A cemetery where I marry the sea
I feel like I belong in a place where I can be at peace with my thoughts, even if it's a bit morbid.

Stranger things could never change my mind
My beliefs and thoughts are so ingrained that even something as strange as a supernatural event couldn't change them.

Take it on, take it on
I need to be proactive and face my problems head-on.

Pour my life into a paper cup
My life feels meaningless and disposable, like it could easily be poured into a paper cup.

The ashtray's full and I'm spillin' my guts
I'm sharing my deepest secrets and emotions, like spilling my guts into an ashtray.

She wants to know, am I still a slut?
Someone is questioning my character and past behavior, causing me to feel ashamed.

A scarlet starlet and she's in my bed
I'm in bed with a beautiful woman who is likely bad for me.

A candidate for a soul mate bled
I thought this person could be my soulmate, but something has gone wrong or has been lost.

Push the trigger and pull the thread
I'm stuck in a cycle of self-sabotage, repeating the same mistakes over and over again.

Turn me on, take me for a hard ride
I want to feel alive and excited, even if the experience is dangerous or reckless.

Burn me out, leave me on the other side
I want to be pushed to my limits and feel completely burned out, so that I can finally move on to a better place in life.

I yell and tell it that it's not my friend
I'm angry at the situation and feel like it's not on my side.

I tear it down, I tear it down
I'm taking control of the situation and dismantling what was holding me back.

And then it's born again
After destroying what held me back, I can start fresh and build something new.

How long, I don't, I don't believe it's bad
I don't know how much longer I can keep going like this, but I don't want to believe that it's all bad.

Slit my throat it's all I ever
Even though the situation is painful, it feels like giving up is the only way to survive it.
