Compromise Lyrics by MID CITY

Happy Ever After

2023

[Verse 1]
Get out the way, back it up, right already
Give me space, give me space, any second now, you'll prove it
That your love is like a landmine
Oh, so what's your name, star sign, famous cousin?
Watch me dance, monkey dance, such a silky motherfucker
Now I'm choking on a short line
Hey, I paid to have a real good time

[Pre-Chorus]
Even the weights, we can wait on each other
I can't help the feeling you're pulling me under
Try, you say, "Try," you say, "Try me again"
I want to, it all depends though, on what you

[Chorus]
Compromise
All I hear is compromisе
Gaslight living
Fuck your headgames
Done with you
Oh-oh, oh-oh

[Verse 2]
Yеah, I can behave, play along, there's a limit
Yeah, 'cause nothing says "I love you" like a box, shove me in it
Mark it fragile on the outside
Don't know your name, star sign, famous cousin, favourite follow
But your honesty's honestly getting harder and harder to swallow
Everything was going to plan
I could taste it, it was these hands

[Pre-Chorus]
Even the weights, we can wait on each other
I guarantee you, now we're both going under
Try, try, try again
You want it, so just give in, yeah, and call this

[Chorus]
Compromise
All I hear is compromise
Gaslight living
Fuck your headgames
Done with you
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Compromise
No room here for compromise
You know this is breaking us up
So, run, boy, run
Oh-oh, oh-oh

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
These days of swallowing switchblades
Take more than your pride, pride, pride, pride
Well, buyer, buyer beware

[Chorus]
Compromise
All I hear is compromise
Gaslight living
Fuck your headgames
Done with you
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Compromise
No love lost compromise
I know this is keeling over
Damage done
Charge is set now
Run, boy, run, now

[Outro]
Compromise (These days of swallowing)
No compromise (Switchblades)
All that's special
Come undone
