Can I be on your side

Hey can I be on your side
I said it didn't matter - I lied
I am so afraid - of hearing you say no
Rejection always comes - just like a mortal blow
Took my self respect - left a hole inside
A hole feels good around your wounded pride.
Solo-CHORUS
Am I stupid that I just can't see
Why you're with him - and not with me
Wake your mind up - make your mind up
I can't go on - I fear the dawn - the thrill is gone
Solo-VERSE
When was it that I let you go?
The emptiness just seems to grow
An everlasting wound - clearness of the pain
Rush that haunts my night - dances in my brain
Eternity spins back - feel the hole inside
A hole feels good around your wounded pride.

Solo-CHORUS
Am I stupid that I just can't see
Why your with him & not with me
Wake your mind up & make your mind up
I can't go on - I fear the dawn - the thrill is gone

Solo-VERSE
Is it this crazy world - or is it me?
Is it time to pay the sin tax? - is it "Chicks for Free"
Sprinkling of the blood - Shakin' of the dice
If what you want - is peace - you must pay the price
