Hocico Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Jump into this side of reality
No one will believe you all we can see
Here no one's weak and you will understand
Visions, fantasies are the drugs of men
Hidden to the eye, there is a hidden place
Bark like a dog, show your real face
You will laugh best if you laugh at last
Join me in the other side
Where fortune always smiles
Trust me you will feel complete, alive
Join me let's start a cult
And change all inside your head
Trust me you will never die
Jump into this side, this side of reality
Jump into this side, this side of reality
Jump into this side, this side of reality
Jump into this side, this side of reality
Here in this side bodies don't bleed
Here in this side bodies don't bleed
Jump into this side of reality
No one will believe you all we can see
Here no one's weak and you will understand
Visions, fantasies are the drugs of men
Join me in the other side
Where fortune always smiles
Trust me you will feel complete, alive
Join me let's start a cult
And change all inside your head
Trust me you will never die
You will never die
Join me in the other side
Where fortune always smiles
Trust me you will feel complete, alive
