lyrics version 1
You've got a lot of nerve to say you were my friend
When I was down you just stood there grinning
You've got a lot of nerve to say you always had a helping hand to lend
You just wanted to be on the side that was winning
And I know the reason that you talk behind my back
I used to be among that crowd you're in with
But do you take me for such a fool as to think I'd interact
With the ones who try to hide what they don't know to begin with
Now when you see me on the street you always act surprised
You say how are you, God bless you, but you don't mean it
And you know as well as me you'd rather see me ostracised
Well why don't you just come out once and scream it
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've lost your faith, but that's not where it's at
You had no faith to lose and you know it
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
And you would know how sad I am to see you
Oh oh-ah-oh oh ah ahoh
Ah ya yeah eh yeah yeah yeah
When I was down you just stood there grinning
You've got a lot of nerve to say you always had a helping hand to lend
You just wanted to be on the side that was winning
And I know the reason that you talk behind my back
I used to be among that crowd you're in with
But do you take me for such a fool as to think I'd interact
With the ones who try to hide what they don't know to begin with
Now when you see me on the street you always act surprised
You say how are you, God bless you, but you don't mean it
And you know as well as me you'd rather see me ostracised
Well why don't you just come out once and scream it
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've lost your faith, but that's not where it's at
You had no faith to lose and you know it
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
And you would know how sad I am to see you
Oh oh-ah-oh oh ah ahoh
Ah ya yeah eh yeah yeah yeah
