If Love Was Fair

I wouldn't be half lit drunk

Digging 'round the danger

Wrapping my number on a coaster

Sliding it to a stranger

Walking crooked justifying all my bad behavior

Tangled up in someone's arms I know I won't see later

I wouldn't be getting good at getting good at staying calm

Or sitting high and mighty on my broken throne

I wouldn't be cursing God for leaving me here all alone

I wouldn't be stuck between a rock and being stung

If love was fair

I'd be golden

Cause you'd be there

I know it's patient

I know it's kind

But it wouldn't change its mind

And I feel there

If love was fair

I wouldn't be replaying what it was and what it wasn't

Or thinking I could change if I only saw it coming

It wouldn't take everything I have to rise above it

There'd be some kind of peace

Yeah, there'd be some kind of justice

If love was fair

I'd be golden

Cause you'd be there

I know it's patient

I know it's kind

But it wouldn't change its mind

And I feel there

If love was fair

Love is twisted

It has its rules

And I'd be over it like you

If love was fair

I'd be golden

Cause you'd be there

I know it's patient

I know it's kind

But it wouldn't change its mind

And I feel there

If love was fair
