The Other Side

[Intro] [Verse 1] Sunrise paints this chicken's coop in gold, Another day of PECKING seeds unfolds. The rooster sings the same old song, But my heart is beating to a different drum. I see the gate to the road is open just a bit, I'm wondering if I should go through it. [Chorus] So why'd I cross the road? To break the rules that I've been told, While all my dreams were growin' old. I crossed the road to change my fate, To see the world beyond the gate. The other side is calling, soft and low, Now this chicken has somewhere to go. [Bridge] They say the grass is never quite as green on the other side, But I'm standing on it now, so lush and deep. I'm waking to a life that I only lived in sleep. [Chorus] So why'd I cross the road? To break the rules that I've been told, While all my dreams were growin' old. I crossed the road to change my fate, To see the world beyond the gate. The other side is calling, soft and low, Now this chicken has somewhere to go. [Outro]
