Thought You Were On My Side Lyrics

Thought You Were On My Side lyrics

Not without reason have I been wrong
 Just a few tough demands
 On a
personal friend I could lean on
 Desperate and selfish, I know that I
was
 We drank all our fill
 But I'd swear there was poison in my
cup
 Of your good intentions what has become?
 I thought you were on
my side
 Must you add the weight?
 You said it would be even

When splitting up the stakes
 I thought you were on my side
 Were we
not the rage?
 Down the center line,
 What's yours is yours and
mine
 Just like always

 Hurting for freedom, hell-bent for
lust
 I'ts an unlikely thing that I'd keep bumping in
 to someone I
could trust
 I'm far from resigning, though I'm faint from exhaust

Just because I'm on edge
 Do I have to let somebody come push me off?
 Is it the belonging, or something you've lost?

 I thought you
were on my side
 Must you add the weight?
 You said it would be
even
 When splitting up the stakes
 I thought you were on my side
 Were we not the rage?
 Down the center line,
 What's yours is
yours and mine
 Just like always
