On Your Side

I was waiting to say this at a better time
I was waiting to say this in another life
You break me down I swear that it wasn't me
You break me down I swear

If I am honest, I've been lying for a while
I broke a promise that I'd always make you smile

But I am on your side
I am on your side
I will never be better to you
Or give you the things you want
But I am on your side

I'm afraid I'm never going to make it right
Why the face? This doesn't have to be a fight
And settle down I swear that it wasn't me
Please settle down I swear

If I am honest, I've been lying for awhile
And I acknowledge that I'm gonna keep on lying

But I am on your side
I am on your side
I will never be better to you
Or give you the things you want
I will never be better than this
Really it's all I got
I will never be deserving of you
I'll leave if that's what you want
But I am on your side
