Necessary Evils Lyrics by The Favors
Knowing one day you’re not gonna wake up
Could avoid all the pain if we ripped the bandaid and break up
Oh, all the necessary evils of loving you
Oh, all the necessary evils of losing you
At the very least, I would miss you if you leave the house
While I’m still in one piece, can we rip up the lease and move out?
Oh, all the necessary evils of loving you
Oh, all the necessary evils of losing you
No, I’d never feel blue if I’d never met you
And I’d never be wrong ’cause you’d never be true
If you’d never been born, I’d avoid every storm
I drive for you
Oh, all the necessary evils of
Loving you
Oh, all the necessary evils of
Losing you
