You got a lot of nerve to say you are my friend
|
When I was down you just stood there grinnin'
|
You got a lot of nerve to say you got a helping hand to lend
|
You just wanna be on the side that's winnin'
|
|
You say I let you down, you know it's not like that
|
If you're so hurt why then don't you show it
|
You say you lost your faith, but that's not where it's at
|
You had no faith to lose and you know it
|
|
I know the reason that you talk behind my back
|
I used to be among the crowd you're in with
|
Do you take me for such a fool to think I'd make contact
|
With the one who tries to hide what he don't know to begin with
|
|
You see me on the street, you always act surprised
|
You say, 'how are you, good luck,' but you don't mean it
|
When you know as well as me you'd rather see me paralyzed
|
Why don't you just come out once and scream it
|
|
No I do not feel that good when I see the heartbreaks you embrace
|
If I was a master theif perhaps I'd rob them
|
Now I know you're dissatisfied with your position and your place
|
Can't you understand that's not my problem
|
|
Well I wish that for just one time you could stand inside my shoes
|
And just for that one moment I could be you
|
Yes I wish that for just one time you could stand inside my shoes
|
You know what a drag it is to see you
|
