Indigo Girls - Compromise lyrics

You wear the cloth of finest lands, The touch of women the toil of hands. Undress me now before I bend, From the weight of everyman. When I'm walking through this world, I need to hold your hand. Let me take you on this ride, I hope you understand, I'm not asking for a compromise. You defend, exhume, begin again It's the riddle of a skeleton. We're all diseased so count the coupe, I can't imagine stopping you. When I'm walking through this world, I need to hold your hand. Let me take you on this ride, I hope you understand, I'm not asking for a compromise. So the earth we scorch, we breathe, Find some comfort on our knees. You find your worth in words that wind, Pleasures I don't comprehend. When I'm walking through this world, I need to hold your hand. Let me take you on this ride, I hope you understand, I'm not asking for a compromise.
