Say the west is a story we made up to erase 
Conestoga wagons left tracks you can see from space 
From the Northwest passage to the Great Divide 
Everybody's looking for the other side 

I'm still waiting for the whiskey to whisk me away 
And I'm still waiting for the ashra to lead me astray 
I twist the culdesacs into one way signs 
I ain't going round in circles on the other side 

So at night I sit and watch for stars to stay 
They wink and then they're gone down the Milky Way 
But when You're left in the middle of the Midwest sky 
Everywhere you look is the Other Side
