On the Wrong Side of the Gate
lyric Dawn Sinclair
music Mark Ellis
V1
It's too quiet -- I can hear the lies
Too cold -- now I feel no pain
Too empty - there is nothing here
Nothing left of you, I'm alone again
V2
It's only a whisper from the end
Merely a shadow from my fears
With only the night to call my friend
As icy rain masks my falling tears
chorus
Did you have to move outside the wall
Did you mean to wipe us off the slate
Leave me standing, too afraid to call
Right here
On the wrong side of the gate
bridge
and what is the point of despair
when there's no one there?
no one there
V3
On another day he offered you a ride
another cold day - I saw you snug inside
Sat beside you - his fingers laced with yours
You left me -- I locked the stable doors
chorus
solo

V4
theres only - a whisper til we die
Only.... a shadow from my death
And I'll go there to find the answer why
When there’s only my bitter drops left
chorus
