Even the Score
Navigating Love's Paradox: Even the Score
Lyrics
I wish that I could give breath
I desire the ability to bring life or vitality to
To the women I've created
To the women I have imagined or envisioned
In paragraphs and paragraphs
In extensive writings or compositions
I've written to this date
That I have produced up to this point
And set them all upon my desk, choose one to ignore
And placed them all on my desk, selecting one to disregard
Just to even the score
Just to restore a sense of balance or fairness
All the biggest plays I missed
All the significant opportunities I missed
'Cause I was sitting over on the sidelines
Because I remained on the sidelines
All the precious faces that
All the attractive individuals that
Refused to date someone outside the guidelines
Rejected dating someone outside certain criteria or norms
Well, high school begins with worship for the leisure class
High school commences with admiration for the privileged class
You swear you'll overcome it
You promise to overcome it
But your envy doesn't seem to pass
But your jealousy doesn't seem to fade away
How similar the shopping but at different stores
How similar the pursuit of material goods, but from different sources
We've got to even the score
We must restore a sense of equilibrium
All the biggest plays I missed
All the significant opportunities I missed
'Cause I was sitting over on the sidelines
Because I remained on the sidelines
All the precious faces that
All the attractive individuals that
Refused to date someone outside the guidelines
Rejected dating someone outside certain criteria or norms
All the biggest plays I missed
All the significant opportunities I missed
'Cause I was sitting over on the sidelines
Because I remained on the sidelines
All the precious faces that
All the attractive individuals that
Refused to date someone outside the guidelines
Rejected dating someone outside certain criteria or norms
