Compromise lyrics

Why does it feel so hard To give just a little trust Feels like juggling in the dark And all you end up is cut Going along getting along believing One day things will change but all you feel is Compromise I cannot explain it Why we always take it Compromise We know what it gets us So why don't we just make a Compromise Compromise Giving more than you can Trying to make things work Fighting in a ship on the ocean floor Dying over who drowns first Too hurt to try anymore and so you give in Thinking one day they'll change but all you feel is Compromise I cannot explain it Why we always take it Compromise We know what it gets us So why don't we just make a Compromise Compromise I don't want to start a fire Just to watch bridges burn Good intentions seal our fate When everybody takes a turn Give what you get when you get what wasn't given Fighting for the last word, all you end up feeling is Compromise Compromise Compromise Compromise
