Bend Over Backwards

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Common ground I'm finding it hard to find When you cut me down To nothing but a dotted line [Pre-Chorus] Put me way up on the highest shelf Like you're the only one who can tell Who I am, what I want But you can't know me like I know myself [Chorus] I can compromise I'm willing to try I'll put in the work But I won't bend over backwards I can be polite Not say what's on my mind Even if it hurts But I won't bend over backwards Bend over backwards [Verse 2] Time I've lost Tying myself up in knots There's a heavy cost To letting someone else call the shots [Pre-Chorus] Read the disappointment on my face 'Cause you never give more than you take Are you scared of the thought That what you wanted isn't what you got? [Chorus] I can compromise I'm willing to try I'll put in the work But I won't bend over backwards I can be polite Not say what's on my mind Even if it hurts But I won't bend over backwards Bend over backwards [Bridge] Mmm, mmm I can compromise I'm willing to try I'll put in the work But I won't bend over backwards Bend over backwards (Ah) [Chorus] I can compromise I'm willing to try I'll put in the work But I won't bend over backwards (Ah) I can be polite Not say what's on my mind Even if it hurts But I won't bend over backwards (Ah) Bend over backwards
