“The Other Side” by Conan Gray
The narrator of “The Other Side” appears to be on the verge of moving on to another stage in life while considering what the future holds for him. He is likely speaking about entering college and wondering if he and his close friends will make it together.
The singer paints a picture of how difficult it will be to let go of all the memories and people he has spent time with. He recalls how they had been caught up living in the moment without realizing that time was passing by and they would soon be moving on to a new and different stage in life. The singer further expresses his hope for a better future where he is happier, living his dreams and most importantly going to meet his friend once again on the pavements.
Conan wrote this song in his final year in high school, as a memoir of the things he did, the places he went and the people he met along the way.

I like almost all of his songs and I like to read what his songs are about. The truth behind the lyrics.
