"Compromise" lyrics

Lying in the bed with you
Back to back is nothing new
With all we've done
It can't go on
Choking on your apathy
Hanging on to misery
It's eating you
You know it's true

Still we lie awake
Bleeding our mistakes
You can't clean this up
Or make it stop
I can't go on hurting you
All that I know how to do
Is pack it up
And move along

It seems as though
We both know
We can't compromise
Breathing close
'Til we both just choke

Sold a broken chemistry
We rewrite our history
With faded ink
That we can't see
Arrogance breeds loneliness
Every word and second guess
Comes at a cost
And proves we're lost

Drowning in your jealousy
Nothing you can say to me
I haven't said before
Or I'll say once more
Chasing truths you can't confess
Ruins of what we had left
To heal these wounds
I'm leaving you

It seems as though
We both know
We can't compromise
Breathing close
'Til we both just choke
What makes you whole
You must know
I cannot provide
Free our souls
We both know
To let go

It seems as though
We can't compromise
It seems as though
We can't compromise
It seems as though
We can't compromise
It seems as though
We can't compromise
