To know there's a problem is the first step in solving it. At least that's what Dear Abby always said.

Lyricist on an endless quest for the perfect melody.
I'm afraid I can't claim to be a band, although I have been known to jump on a bandwagon from time to time. No, I'm just a humble lyricist who is in absolute awe of the composers who have stumbled into my life and bothered to wrap a melody around some of my words. I've been attempting to legitimately call myself a lyricist since I was about 14 years old. Have a listen, won't you, and let me know if I qualify.

Lyrics
The Other Side © 2003 Greg C. Brown and Mike DeShazer V1 You shake your fist and tell me I'm to blame, I glare right back at you and do the same. It seems instead of talking, all we do is yell Anger doesn't suit us very well. V2 In all our conversation we keep bringing up the past Now how's that gonna help make this love last? Forgiveness is a gift you can't keep for yourself We don't seem to share very well CHORUS There's a canyon in between us, Keeping us apart Turning us into strangers And swallowing our hearts Baby I am willing to try To meet you on the other side. V3 Now an awkward silence is the only thing we hear A sigh escapes your lips and then disappears We used to trust each other, now we look for lies And miss the truth that’s hidden in the eyes REPEAT CHORUS (replace last two lines with: Baby are you willing to try And me meet on the other side?) BRIDGE We could stay up all night slinging stone-like words, Saying things we know will only hurt. Or meet me on your side, I'll meet you on mine, We can close this gap but it's gonna take some time It's not too far that we can't get across, And not too late to get back what we've lost. REPEAT CHORUS (replace last two lines with: But baby, let’s give it a try And meet on the other side.)
