Even If Lyrics

Doesn't seem that selfish

No, not in the least.

What's so self righteous about this curiosity,

This want for a meager exchange?

So much time has passed, but still, it remains.

This need for you is a recurring theme in my life



Don't you think I'm lonely

Eager to complete the story

Confused and still haunted with why you'd start over

Oh, and ignore me



It takes time to realize the other side of you

That's controlled and blinding on sight of our lives

Even if you left me and my brother

Even if you left us and our mother.



I want nothing more than to catch your eye

Would you be impressed with how far I've climbed

Without your assistance?

With you nowhere in sight?



Don't you think I'm lonely

Eager to complete the story

Confused and still haunted

With why you'd start over

Oh, and ignore us



It takes time to realize the other side of you

That's controlled and blinding on sight of our lives

Even if you left me and my brother

Even if you left us and our mother



She's had her share

More than we'll know

My brother won't, he just won't let go.



They say you're sick and there's a name and a phrase

To apply and help explain

Still having trouble trying to separate

How you started a new family



Even after you left me and my brother

Even after you left us and our mother.
