The Compromise 歌詞

You looked around but it wasn't there You can't ignore the voice of reason "You can't be what you want, so you better be what you are" You fought your way to an inch of freedom You did your best and they didn't care You've had your share and you have your reasons "You can't be what you want, so you better be what you are" So we begin our story Beleaguered and taken down Everybody wants a piece of what's going on Afraid you'll become dull and boring In a suit that doesn't fit Everybody wants a piece of what's going on You can't mean what you said You're not sorry for a word of it Everybody wants to get ahead Now it's not too late to say you're sorry You're alright The Compromise You've backed yourself into a corner You looked around and it wasn't there You're such a sucker for superstition You can't be what you are So you better be what you want
