Endless Compromise Written by Bobby Barth

I know that I should turn my back and close the book on you
It really should not be this hard with what you put me through
But my will seems to melt away when I look in your eyes
And I slip into an endless compromise

I hear the same excuses, I've heard them all before
But once again I'm paralyzed as I walk toward the door
In this give and take illusion nobody's gonna win
Here comes that endless compromise again

Oh no, oh no, here it comes again
Oh no, oh no nobody's gonna win

Call it an illusion and count the reasons why
Call it anything you want it still sounds like a lie
I'm a man of principals and I sure despise
Living in an endless compromise

Oh no, oh no, here it comes again
Oh no, oh no nobody's gonna win
