come to compromise
for all of me that has withered up and faded
like a fallen sunset
come to compromise
and let this music paint our silence
like a fallen susent
and it's each beat pounding in my head
this too familiar sound of failure
this song I can't get out of my head
this too familiar sound repeating every note
making up for words unsaid
this too familiar sound
we've all sang the same hymn of infatuation
we're making up for each bitter tongue
letting the world know in different ways
taking our feelings we can't express
and showcasing them as if as if they really mattered
we're letting the world know
these are the only strings connected to my heart
that no one can play with
