InMe - Papillon's Stalemate lyrics

So far, it's safe to go out
The boys have their knives out
Well, I said I'm gonna do this
For you anyway, one balloon, one cannonball
This city's got a hold on you
The electricity is getting stronger
(Stronger) a friction on my head but
(Stalemate)

Why do we compromise our dreams?
(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)
And on and on it goes (On and on)
Oh, and on and on and on and on and on
(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)
For once in my life
I'd love to feel my instincts sweeten
(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)
And I always seem to owe you an apology
(Stalemate, it's a stalemate and on and on)
We diminish our self-respect until
There is none left
Well, I said I've got to do
This to you anyway, I jump, you somersault
This city's got a hold on you
The electricity is getting stronger
(Stronger) the fury of a knife fight
(Stalemate)

Why do we compromise our dreams?
(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)
Oh, and on and on it goes (On and on)
Oh, and on and on and on and on and on
(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)
For once in my life
I'd love to feel my instincts sweeten
(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)
And I always seem to owe you an apology
(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)

Why do we compromise our dreams?
(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)
And on and on it goes (On and on)
Oh, and on and on and on and on and on
(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)
For once in my life
I'd love to feel my instincts sweeten
(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)
And I always seem to owe you an apology
(Stalemate)

(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)
