The Other Side
Ruelle Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't want to know who we are without each other
It's just too hard
I don't want to leave here without you
I don't want to lose part of me
Will I recover?
That broken piece, let it go and unleash all the feelings

Did we ever see it coming?
Will we ever let it go?

We are buried in broken dreams
We are knee-deep without a plea
I don't want to know what it's like to live without you
Don't want to know the other side of a world without you

Is it fair, or is it fate?
No one knows
The stars choose their lovers, save my soul
It hurts just the same
And I can't tear myself away

Did we ever see it coming?
Will we ever let it go?

We are buried in broken dreams
We are knee-deep without a plea
I don't want to know what it's like to live without you
Don't want to know the other side of a world without you

I don't want to know
I don't want to know
I don't want to know
I don't want to know
I don't want to know
I don't want to know
I don't want to know
I don't want to know

We are buried in broken dreams
We are knee-deep without a plea
I don't want to know what it's like to live without you
Don't want to know the other side of a world without you





Can't live without you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Ruelle’s song, The Other Side, are about the intense love that two individuals share for each other. It’s about the fear of leaving a loved one behind and the incredible pain and void that it creates. The opening line, “I don't want to know who we are without each other, It's just too hard,” immediately sets the emotional tone for the rest of the song. The singer is suggesting that the idea of living without her love is unbearable, and she doesn't want to confront that reality.


The lines, “We are buried in broken dreams, We are knee-deep without a plea,” are significant in driving home the message of how devastating losing a loved one is. It feels like a burial of all hopes, dreams, and aspirations. It feels like being stuck in quicksand, without any hope of survival.


The song also has a philosophical undertone to it. There's a reference to fate in the line, “Is it fair, or is it fate? No one knows, The stars choose their lovers, save my soul.” It’s almost as if the singer is resigned to the fact that fate plays a hand in what happens to us, including whom we fall in love with. The song ends with the profound message, “Can't live without you,” which effectively sums up the intensity of the emotion being expressed in the lyrics.

I hate that Ruelle is underrated. She has a lot a potential and she's already doing a great job.

@Vienna5551

She probably hasn’t sold her soul that’s why she’s underrated

@benberkenbosch

Don’t worry, she doesn’t need to be famous to have good music. We’re one of the fewer people to experience this beautiful music.

@jeonmai8404

I think that there are so many others like her 💔
