[Intro] C Em 3x [Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Verse 3] 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 give in Fighting for the last word all you end up feel is [Finale] Compromise Compromise Compromise Compromise
