Thought You Were on My Side

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
