Same Side

I came to you with good news
Why take away a good mood in an instant?
Are you listening?

You'd rather tell me the truth
I do have a little more room for improvement
But I'm only human

I know it isn't my way or the highway
You're just looking out for me
You're putting me in my place over high stakes
Forgive me, I, honestly

Don't wanna' do it for you, but I don't wanna' fight
I don't wanna' do it even though you're right
Don't wanna' think I owe you and do it out of spite
But that's the only way to get it done sometimes
Isn't it ironic?
We'll both get what we wanted
I'm feeling instant karma
'Cause I forget we're on the same side
Same side

Guilty of dodging your calls
It kills me 'cause it's never your fault
I'm complaining
It's never plain and simple

I know it isn't my way or the highway
You're just looking out for me
You're putting me in my place over high stakes
Forgive me, I honestly

Don't wanna' do it for you, but I don't wanna' fight
I don't wanna' do it even though you're right
Don't wanna' think I owe you and do it out of spite
But that's the only way to get it done sometimes
Isn't it ironic?
We'll both get what we wanted
I'm feeling instant karma
'Cause I forget we're on the same side
Same side
Same side
Same side

You're just looking out for me
You're just looking out for me
You're just looking out for me
Forgive me, I honestly

Don't wanna' do it for you, but I don't wanna' fight
I don't wanna' do it even though you're right
Don't wanna' think I owe you and do it out of spite
But that's the only way to get it done sometimes
Isn't it ironic?
We'll both get what we wanted
I'm feeling instant karma
'Cause I forget we're on the same side
Same side
Same side
