Promises歌詞

作詞 : Paul Cargnello
作曲 : Paul Cargnello
Promises, they're all meant to be kept
Every time that I've broken one, I swear to you I wept
Promises, all the hurting is done upfront
Trying to be the pick of the litter, when really, you're the runt
Promises, are not much more than just that
Every tear I shed, I kept hidden under my hat
Promises, they'll expose what's underneath
Like behind every pair of lips there's a mouth full of teeth
My word and my pen are as tough as they come
They put a hole right through the frame
Like a weapon
I promise you the mind
(Promises)
I promise you the world
I promise you the body, I promise that it twirls
I promise to be honest
(Promises)
And if I promise you you're right
I promise you that I've lied, I promise not tonight
I promise you you're lucky
(Promises)
I promise you've got game
I promise you don't deserve it, but it's a promise all the same
I promise you the money
(Promises)
I promise you respect, I promise the material things will decay in their neglect
I promise you no mercy
(Promises)
I promise to stay alert
I promise you the truth, I just can't promise it won't hurt
Promises
Promises
Promises
Promises
Promises
Promises
