On Your Side Lyrics

Cover art for On Your Side lyrics by Pete Yorn

This is about two people with plenty of disagreements in their relationship. The reasons for them are still up in the air and there's a need for closure. A need for everything to be said that could not be said because the two wouldn't allow the other to speak. So there's the plea to undertand "I am on your side, it's taken me a long time" or to see it in the others view, which took one a long time to realise, and the plea to convince right after "I am on your side, on your side". With the end being that he'll listen until it's all been said and until he says everything. Then saying "I'm heading out tonight" while continuing to state that he's listening as if to say that as he's leaving if there's anything else before he's gone. I love this song, it's the first song I ever heard from him.
