Grass is Greener on the Other Side

Our souls are poisoned with cyanide

All over the world, people have died

We are all on a death train ride

But the grass is greener on the other side

 

Oh yes, on the other side the grass is green

The air is clean and nobody is mean

Where blue sky and animals roam free

Only happiness as far as the eye could see

 

These are the lies that we were told

Please believe me, I should know

For I went to the place described as gold

But I know the truth will unfold

 

They say the grass is greener on the other side

But both sides look the same from a bird’s eye

One is neither bright nor a shade that’s died

Apparently, the grass is greener on the other side

 

But I know the truth

Greener grass is a lie

For I have been

To the other side
