Compromise
Breaking Free: Unveiling the Heart's Battle in 'Compromise'
Lyrics
You're taking me for granted
You feel like you're not appreciated or valued
Can you agree to compromise?
Are you willing to find a middle ground?
Cause I've wanted this for so long
The desire for this has been strong for a while
And my mind keeps telling why
Your thoughts are conflicting and questioning
Am I making you nervous, you may not deserve this
Wondering if your actions are unsettling the other person, though they may not deserve this situation
But it's time for me to be honest
It's time to be truthful and decisive
And make up my mind
Making a firm decision
When the situation changed, you never stayed the same
When circumstances changed, the other person's behavior changed as well
By now I've learned to cope with what this means for me
Learning to handle the consequences of these changes
And the last words you said still echoes through my head
Past words still deeply affect you
Just let me be
Asking for space or solitude
Even though I left it all behind
Leaving something behind, but it continues to trouble you
It still haunts me 'til this day
It's a lingering issue
You kept on telling me that the grass is greener on the other side
Repeated advice about opportunities elsewhere, but doubts arise
But where is the fine line?
Questioning the boundary between options
Have I crossed it one too many times?
Concern about crossing a limit too many times
And I'm moving on beyond your dagger
Moving forward despite someone's harmful actions
My well-being doesn't seem to matter
Self-worth doesn't seem to be a priority for the other person
And when you throw your sticks and stones
When the other person attacks verbally or emotionally
You're weakening all my bones
Emotional harm and vulnerability due to their actions
I guess I'm better off without you
Realizing that being away from that person is better
I grew tired of feeling pointless and restless
Feeling exhausted and aimless
I left myself behind to find some peace of mind
Abandoning self to find peace
To find some peace of mind
Seeking internal tranquility
It doesn't matter what you're ready for
It doesn't matter what they're prepared for, you won't tolerate it anymore
Cause I won't take it anymore
Determined not to accept the situation any further
