I Promise

I been watching the birds as they go

I been keepin my bank account low

I been keepin my end of the deal with saint anthony and saint thomas

My little sister gave it a hell of a try

You know i hear it gets worse when you die

I can’t believe you got me waiting for another year

But if you ever make it back i’ll be here

And i’ll be ready i promise

I promise

I hear your voice

Say things to me

But i get up for nothing

Because i’m afraid to see

Everyday is so twisted

I know you won’t give in

But i’ll still be here if you want me back again

I promise

I promise

You can always come home

I promise

You can always come home

I try to count the chimes

Water the flowers above the sink sometimes

I listen to your records

Do you still have mine?

Every day is so twisted

I know you won’t give in

So i promise not to try to make it breathe again

I promise
