About This Track

'Otherside' arrived as the eleventh track on 'beerbongs & bentleys', released in April 2018. It peaked at number 46 on the Billboard Hot 100, a quieter showing than the album's chart-topping singles but a song that earned its place through emotional weight rather than radio ubiquity. Post Malone frames the track around loss and the futile gestures that follow it. He waits for waves that might carry him back to someone gone, acknowledging that neither excess nor distraction can reverse the absence. The lyrics move between regret and resignation, touching on lost faith and the question of whether the person on the other side might still offer salvation or has already turned away. The song's restraint suits its subject. Where much of 'beerbongs & bentleys' leans into spectacle, 'Otherside' pulls inward, its melody carrying the ache of someone circling a drain and knowing it.

"Otherside" is a track by Post Malone, from the album beerbongs & bentleys, released 12th May 2016. The track is 3:48 long. It's filed under Hip-Hop/Rap. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 3 articles about Post Malone.

Lyrics

Otherside

I been waitin', wide awake for the waves to come and take
Take me right to you
One hundred bottles of the good shit, couldn't even bring you back
What am I to do?
Feel like I'm circlin' a drain
All I see is the remains of an ugly truth
One hundred models I could follow all the way to hell and back
But they can't replace you

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

I was puttin' on for you like a jersey
What I didn't know then couldn't hurt me
Never thought you were gonna do me dirty
Left me in the cold, but on the inside I was burnin'
But that's just the way it goes
Wish that I could have control
Everybody dies alone
(And I ain't dead yet)

Say my prayers
But I lost faith a long time ago (A long time ago)
Dream nightmares
I guess we're gettin' used to losin' hope (Guess, we're losing hope)

I don't even wonder why you don't answer
When I call your name
Are you on the other side? Will you save us?
Or will you run away?

I'm still waitin', wide awake for the waves to come and take
Take me right to you (Take me right to you)
One hundred vials of denial, I know they won't bring you back
What am I to do? (What am I to do?)
You're my alibi and motive
When I'm lyin' to myself of the ugly truth (What an ugly truth)
We're no strangers to the flame
We will never be the same if we make it through
(And we can make it through)

My back is up against the wall
But I used to feel invincible
Yeah, it was us against the world
But somehow, someway, the take was comin'
I remember back then
Played my cards right you were my best hand
Still you keep me guessin'
Wonder if I'll ever get the message

Say my prayers
But I lost faith a long time ago (A long time ago)
Dream nightmares
I guess we're gettin' used to losin' hope (Guess we're losing hope)

I don't even wonder why you don't answer
When I call your name
Are you on the other side? Will you save us?
Or will you run away?

(Are you on the other side? Will you save us?)
(Or will you run away?)
