Compromised

Don't act surprised Your lack of presence comforts me No I'm not telling lies I'm vulnerable but you can't see A dozen pictures tell my story A dozen mirrors seen me cry I've grown a tree I've watered soil Ridden space for a new life I compromised Tell me why I walked away You followed behind Hold your mistakes I can barely carry mine Please remind me we're almost out of time Say I'm disappointing but know At least I tried It's my fault I always do it wrong I painted you a picture I'm your living picture You compared me night and day I swore to you that I would stay I almost lied You make it hard sometimes A dozen pictures tell my story A dozen mirrors seen me cry I've grown a tree I've watered soil Ridden space for a new life I compromised Try Try Try Try Try Try I tried I walked away You followed behind Hold your mistakes I can barely carry mine Please remind me we're almost out of time Say I'm disappointing but know At least I tried Try Try I tried To rewind
