Defiance – No Compromise lyrics

[Music: Harrington / Vander Ende / Adams]
[Lyrics: Esquivel]

Day after day
I turn the page another suicide
Page after page
Another death in the back of my
mind
Why must it be this way at all
Why can't we live our lives
I'd hate to be one of the many
No compromise

[Chorus:]

Placed for all to see
Who used to be
Family's left with nothing
But a faint memory
Day after day
I turn the page another child dies
Sin after sin
Another reason for a human
sacrifice
Why must it be that way at all
Why can't we live our Iives
I'd hate to be one of the many
No compromise
[Repeat chorus]

[Bridge:]
See my eves I don't find time
To look at the price we pay
Easy come and easy go
Look at the life time cycle
Yeah, the people time forgot

[Repeat first verse, chorus]

You, you know the choice you
make
Who, who's next in line to pay

[Chorus:]

Who used to be
Now a faint memory
You see it on TV
The people pass away
Family's left with nothing
But a faint memory
