| 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... |
