Songtext von Bend Over Backwards

Common ground I'm finding it hard to find When you cut me down To nothing but a dotted line Put me way up on the highest shelf Like you're the only one who can tell Who I am, what I want You can't know me like I know myself I can compromise I'm willing to try I'll put in the work But I won't bend over backwards I can be polite Not say what's on my mind Even if it hurts But I won't bend over backwards Bend over backwards Time I've lost Tying myself up in knots There's a heavy cost To letting someone else call the shots Read the disappointment on my face 'Cause you can never give more than you take Are you scared of the thought? That what you wanted isn't what you got I can compromise I'm willing to try I'll put in the work But I won't bend over backwards I can be polite Not say what's on my mind Even if it hurts But I won't bend over backwards Bend over backwards I can compromise I'm willing to try I'll put in the work But I won't bend over backwards Bend over backwards I can compromise I'm willing to try I'll put in the work But I won't bend over backwards I can be polite Not say what's on my mind Even if it hurts But I won't bend over backwards Bend over backwards
