about

Side to Side is the second single from solo artist 'Jessie Scarlet'.
The track is a come back song, about being betrayed by people believed to be friends, wishing them well and stepping aside.

Jessie experiments with a new, fuller rock sound in this track, including synths in the instrumentation to modernise and balance the heavy rock guitar and adding in a spoken word / rap section comprised of words from
slanderous conversations and messages that came to light - Jessie has included these in her lyrics to take back ownership of the comments and empower herself post grieving of the friendships.

Produced by Ben Williams

lyrics

I bet you didn’t think you’d see me here
Always forgotten, always in fear
Forever on my own, going around and round inside my mind
You always wanting more.
What for?
I didn’t see the signs
They’re all out for themselves
And all my faith in you has died
I wish you well but, look out
Cos every words a lie
Your clean breaks throw me side to side
I wish you well, but look out, look out, look out
Look out
Cos I’m not gonna compromise
I know I bought into the madness
The madness
But how do you escape the inescapable?
The unexplainable
I’ve seen your words
I know you lie
Derailing, distracting it’s all incised
Liar liar you get higher mutually to conspire
Cut the cancer off, cut it right off
Too emotional, cut it right off
I believe in Karma you see
When the Queen of drama is me
Now you’ve got no one left to call
