Call it unnecessary evil Breaking us the only way we might survive We are extraordinary people Don't always get the happy ending we want, like We can't keep on playing this song But we can't move on So we make up and carry on Like nothing's wrong How long before we face up? You and I are like oil and water Clash at every corner How can we walk away? How can we walk away? You and I are like oil and water A plain and pure disaster How can we walk away? How can we walk away? I can't deny I got an ego And you pushed to blood as no one else could ever fight It ain't like we're lacking in emotion But we've been the opposite of happy for some time We can't keep on playing this song But we can't move on So we make up and carry on Like nothing's wrong How long before we face up? You and I are like oil and water Clash at every corner How can we walk away? How can we walk away? You and I are like oil and water A plain and pure disaster How can we walk away? How can we walk away? Call it the lesser of two evils I throw silver linings, getting harder now to fight Why are we fighting for the way? Why can't you walk away? Why can't you walk away? Oil and water Clash at every corner How can we walk away? How can we walk away? You and I are like oil and water A plain and pure disaster How can we walk away? How can we walk away? Oil and water Clash at every corner How can we walk away? How can we walk away? You and I are like oil and water A plain and pure disaster How can we walk away? How can we walk away? Call it the lesser of two evils Breaking your heart's the only way we might survive We are just ordinary people Don't always get the happy ending we would like
