Lyrics

Be on my side
Whenever you want to get me off your back
Always remind me that I'm not alone

'Cause I'm not like you
Haven't we both got better things to do
Than hating the way that we act sometimes?

So if you're fused inside to the same old story
Keep you side by side, did someone say I'm sorry?
I can't imagine what it might be like to lose someone like you

Now I see I was blind
You could be on my side

I'll be on your side
You know that I could use some time alone
When I'm alone my mind starts to go

Till you sink like a stone
Wondering if you're ever going home
Home is a place I just used to go

If I could see your eyes just a little faster
I want to cut you down, when all you hear is laughter
It's a long, long way to compromise, the difference is sublime

Now I see I was blind
You could be on my side

So be on my side
Whenever you want to get me off your back
Always remind me that I'm not alone

But if you take the time to stop and wonder
You're gonna call my name when you hear the thunder
I can't imagine what it might be like to lose someone like you

Now I see I was blind
You could be on my side
Now I see I was blind
Knock your light out tonight
