White Lies - Getting Even

So if you go and leave recklessly
We can only be mean, we can only be mean
That’s something I, through the tons of my life
Never wanted to be, never wanted to be
But if you stay just a bolt in the ball
Then you’ll never know, then you’ll never know
How you could miss like the day light the way
You’re missing us now, you’re missing us now

So listen to some reason
There’s nothing in your dreams
But if you’re getting even, you’re getting even
Trying to get even
Better start believing
I can forgive and we can forget
Even after all this
Love and other nonsense we’ve made

Now if we kiss then the moon in the sky
Would linger awhile, would linger awhile
So as to give just an inch more of night
But you break from my life
No more kiss no more I

But listen to some reason
There’s nothing in your dreams
But if you’re getting even, you’re getting even
Trying to get even
Better start believing
I can forgive and we can forget
Even after all this wrestling of conscience
I can forgive and we can forget
Even after all this
Love and other nonsense

It’s the worst part of the best of me, best of me
Love I'm trying so hard to be free
Worst of the best of me, best of me
Love I'm trying so hard to be free
Lonely but free and out of love
If you’re getting even, you’re getting even
If you’re getting even, you’re getting even
Trying to get even
Better start believing
I can forgive and we can forget
Even after all this wrestling of conscience
I can forgive and we can forget
Even after all this
Love and other nonsense
