If Love Was Fair

[Verse 1] I wouldn't be half lit drunk, digging 'round for danger Or writing 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 gone 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 stoned [Chorus] 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 out of thin air If love was fair [Verse 2] I wouldn't be replaying what it was and what it wasn't Or thinking I could change it, 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 [Chorus] 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 out of thin air If love was fair [Bridge] Love is twisted, it has its rules And I'd be over it like you [Chorus] 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 out of thin air If love was fair But love ain't fair
