Compassion Without Compromise

(album: For What It's Worth - 2007)

Compassion without compromise
Our weak actions can't be justified
One another's perspectives
We have denied

But I know what's meant for me
And we may not all agree
I just hope somewhere in the middle
We can meet

But for now it's time to swallow your pride
'Cause we won't all comply
And you [?]
But I won't turn my back on you

Instead of living in self-denial
We're being victims of false approval
We must learn to find acceptance within ourselves
Learn to put our hearts on trial

Learn to put our hearts on trial
2, 3, 4

And we are all here together
Side by side with one another
We all bleed
We all cry
We must learn to confide
Within each other

We must learn to confide
Within each other

Why set upon each other
At the expense of one another?
Why is it necessary to walk
Out of the crowd that
Is willing to bow down?

We all bleed the same way
We all have our own say
And if we want things to change
We must stand and endure our own hate

What I believe is the only thing
That separates you from me
But it shouldn't affect the way we think
And treat each other

And if we want things to change
We must stand and endure our own hate

What I believe is the only thing
That separates you from me
But it shouldn't affect the way we think
And treat each other

What I believe is the only thing
That separates you from me
But it shouldn't affect the way we think
And treat each other

We're all (We're all)
We're all under the sun
We're all (We're all)
We're all under the sun
We're all (We're all)
We're all under the sun
We're all (We're all)
We're all under the sun
