"The Other Side of Me" expresses how hard it is to live as both an ordinary girl and a popstar, and how difficult it is to remember who to be when. It also talks about the singer's desire to show all of herself to people, and to be accepted and fit in.
It also serves as a side story to Miley Stewert's double life as Hannah Montana, along with The Best of Both Worlds and Just Like You.
Lyrics[]
The other side, the other side, the other side of me
By day I play the part in every way
All simple, sweet, calm and collected
Pretend to my friends I'm a chameleon
You make a girl feel disconnected
Feel like a star, a super hero
Sometimes it's hard to separate
(Got too much on my plate)
If you could see the other side of me
I'm just like anybody else, can't you tell?
I hold the key to both realities
The girl that I want you want to know
If only I could show
The other side, the other side I want you to see
The other side, the other side, the other side of me
Inside I try to make the pieces fit right
A jigsaw puzzle everywhere
'Cause I flip this script so many times I forget
Who's on stage, who's in the mirror
Back in the spotlight, the crowd is calling
The paparazzi and the fame
(It can drive a girl insane)
If you could see the other side of me
I'm just like anybody else, can't you tell?
I hold the key to both realities
The girl that I want you want to know
If only I could show
The other side, the other side I want you to see
The other side, the other side, the other side of me
Down inside I'm not that different
Like everyone I have a dream
Don't want to hide, just want to fit in
Sometimes it's harder than it seems
If you could see the other side of me
I'm just like anybody else, can't you tell?
I hold the key to both realities
The girl that I want you want to know
If you could see the other side of me
I'm just like anybody else, can't you tell?
I hold the key to both realities
The girl that I want you want to know
If only I could show
The other side, the other side I want you to see
The other side, the other side, the other side of me
The other side, the other side I want you to see
The other side, the other side, the other side of me
