Elizabeth & the Catapult The Other Side of Zero Lyrics Elizabeth & The Catapult lyrics

I used to look to the yes man
To justify my plans
I thanked him when he lied to me
I gladly shook his hand
Now it's plain to see
Such empty reverie
Is about as sweet as a nectar gone bad

I used to look to my idol
To lead my ship ashore
I was determined to believe
Every prayer's accounted for
Now it's plain to see
Only the wind was listening
And I got to ride this tide once more

Back to the other side of zero
Which card shall it be?
A compliment or an insult
It's all just the same to me, to me
Whatever shall be shall be

I used to hide from the future
Like a child running from the tide
I could dream of nothing darker
Than to look fate in the eye
So scared of the worst
That the best just passed me by

And the grass ain't always greener
On the other end

First you got to make it over
Just to see how sweet it's been
Just when you think you've hit

It's time to roll the dice again
Then again and again and again

Back to the other side of zero
Which card shall it be?
A compliment or an insult
It's all just the same to me
Whatever shall be shall be

Whatever shall be
Whatever shall be
Whatever shall be shall be

Oh whatever shall be
Whatever shall be
Whatever shall be shall be

Oh whatever shall be
Whatever shall be
Whatever shall be shall be

Whatever shall be
Whatever shall be
Whatever shall be shall be
