Honest Wage

When you called, it was loud; I got angry
I was everything but sober
I said things that were ruthless, and I meant 'em
But you told me to come over
You say he’s in town, and you’re crying
And you’re throwing him one hell of a party
So I hang up and start shaking, thinking
You never threw one for me
I wish it was easier to kiss you on the mouth
Like it is to work hard and earn an honest wage
But you’re not always fair to me, like I wish you would be…
He’s the one who left home; I’m the one who stayed
So, I drove when I shouldn’t (But I’ll make it; I’m feeling alright)
You walk out, (I'm a mess), you look perfect…
I figured you might…
Next thing I know, I’m exploding
And everything feels awful and wrong
And he’s there, right beside you
But the music inside is our song
I wish it was easier to kiss you on the mouth
Like it is to work hard and earn an honest wage
But you’re not always fair to me, no, like I wish you would be…
He’s the one who left home; I’m the one who stayed
I wish it was easier to kiss you on the mouth
Like it is to work hard and earn an honest wage
But you’re not always fair to me, no, like I wish you would be…
He’s the one who left home; I’m the one who stayed
I wish it was easier to kiss you on the mouth
Like it is to work hard and earn an honest wage
But you’re not always fair to me, no, like I wish you would be…
He’s the one who left home; I’m the one who stayed
I wish it was easier to kiss you on the mouth
Like it is to work hard and earn an honest wage
But you’re not always fair to me, no, like I wish you would be…
He’s the one who left home; I’m the one who stayed
I wish it was easier to kiss you on the mouth
Like it is to work hard and earn an honest wage
But you’re not always fair to me, no, like I wish you would be…
He’s the one who left home; I’m the one who stayed
I just get so angry when
You say you love him so
I wanna be more like him
I wanna know there’s hope
