wayfie - Compliment

You throw away
The words they say
Yeah you throw me in a compost bin

Yeah you've got the smile
And you've got it all
But you can't take a damn compliment

In grade school
They told you
You could be anything

For the first time
And the last time
They told the truth

Then somewhere in the middle
The answer to the riddle made you
Wanna write songs
For the rest of your life

When you fell down
The words they'd say
Would break you down
Even more

So you throw away
The words they say
Yeah you throw me in a compost bin

Yeah you've got the smile
And you've got it all
But you can't take a damn compliment

You can't take a damn compliment

You can't take
You can't take

It's such a shame
What we do for love
Just to let it die

And the stuff we taste
Oh it isn't love
It's been sterilized

So you turn back
To a compost bin
You find me laughing so you settle in

Now words they say
Can't break you down
'Cause you're not alone anymore

Still you throw away
The words they say
Yeah you throw me in a compost bin

Yeah you've got the smile
And you've got it all
But you can't take a damn compliment

You can't take a damn compliment
You can't take a damn compliment
You can't take a damn compliment
You can't take a damn compliment
