No, We're Not Even Now (Orleans LXIX '91)

No, we're not even now
that's not the way it works.
Even if that was the case,
we'd have been at odds long before.

I lied to myself, and said I lied
so you could see the turnaround,
the turnaround

But it was the other way around
the other way around
was the truth that brought me down

This is why I'm free and clear
and free to love again
your lie has turned you inside out
left you torn and strange

So when you come knocking
to get this straightened out
realize it's you who's crooked
and we'll get along just fine

I realized I was crooked
I went and walked the line
You haven't walked that line,
want me to walk in your place
It don't work that way either
Coz in that mirror it's still your face
So no we are not even
Now that you have hurt me too
You can't trade a good eye for a blind one
Not even in the bible
