Rainer Maria Thought I Was

I'm not the way
I thought I was
It was starting to feel like the worst of times
I've got to choose sides

Am I wicked?
Am I right?
Or am I just reacting all the time?

I'm not the way
I thought i was.

I was starting to see all the worst in life
I've got to lose sight
Of their pompous, boring lies

I was starting to think i couldn't fight
I've got to fight
Just not in the way I once thought right
