Everyone here has got a mind of their own
I made a simple request over the telephone
Radio man's got something to say
It's alright
Over and over and over again
I made the same mistake about calling you a friend
One of these days i'm gunna get it right
And all these people here
They're trying to be happy
And all these dreams are put to rest
Things seem so much better
On the other side of town
The wishing wells get deeper and reality breaks down
On the other side of town
We'll all be better off out there on the other side of town
The cage is locked but you're trying to get out
You've been shut in and now you're having some doubt
You should have made your break when you had the chance last night
Now you're stranded and feeling alone
And you're dreaming of ways to make it out on your own
Don't give up cause it's going to be alright
And all these people here
They're trying to be happy
And all these dreams are put to rest
Things seem so much better
On the other side of town
The wishing wells get deeper and reality breaks down
On the other side of town
We'll all be better off out there on the other side of town
Things seem so much better
When all these dreams are put to rest
On the other side of town
The wishing wells get deeper and reality breaks down
On the other side of town
We'll all be better off out there
On the other side of town
The wishing wells get deeper and reality breaks down
On the other side of town
We'll all be better off out there on the other side of town
