Lately I've been compromising
I've been turning down my truest desires and often hiding behind a veil
But it's too bright outside
I can't contaminate the light
Just like a baby blue Jay, barely hopping from the nest, I take flight
Only to die upon arrival for the perch was too high
Or my wings were unprepared
Or maybe I just lacked he confidence that I could soar from here to there
I feel so unaware, but lately I don't even care
I'd do anything at all to just...
F*ck it, I swear I gave it my all
Still, here I am, scratching on the wall
I thought there was a door, but oh the handles just so small
And the key that I once had, it doesn't fit here after all
I rewrap my bandag, wounds were nearly healed before your call
And now I ball up all my confidence and stand up nice and tall
To hide the blatant dehydration, I still taste the alcohol
But I'm just fueling up the fire like my words were ethanol
I'm stressed beyond belief and I regress as I recall
Wait, if maybe life's been traumatizing
Vaguely all the drama's hiding in the mind who guides it but I, shit...
Lately I've been compromising...
I've been turning down desires, often hiding
