Honest Wage (Live at Majestic Theatre)

When you called, it was loud
I got angry
I was everything but sober
I said things that were ruthless
And I meant them

But you told me to come over
You say he's in town, and you're crying
You're throwin 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
And I'm the one who stayed
So I drove, when I shouldn't
But I'm wicked and feeling alright
You walk out, I'm a mess
You look perfect, I figured you might
The 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
Like I wish you would be
He's the one who left home
And I'm the one who stayed

And 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
And I'm the one who stayed

And 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
And I'm the one who stayed

And 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
And I'm the one who stayed

I just get so angry when
You say you love us both
I wanna be more like him
I wanna know there's hope
