Woke up to the headlights of a car

So I made a wish. it didn't go real far

Forgiveness is hard when your heart's a mess

And I gotta do something to make myself feel better

Like a bird from the sky

So I close my eyes and ask God why

And in my selfishness I realize

Sometimes things don't go my way

So I've learned just how to compromise...

Should I cut my heart out so I can feel?

Let it subside to finally know what is real

Maybe I'll take a trip down to the city

The lights look pretty

There's something about the way I sit and stare that makes me feel

Like a bird from the sky

So I close my eyes and ask God why

And in my selfishness I realize

Sometimes things don't go my way

So I've learned just how to compromise...
