Lyrics
Black Promises
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Everything's moving backwards
It's been that way for so long
When all my cries like butterflies
Drift slowly Away
I can't relate to no one
Sifting through all my so called friends
Ain't what I like to do
But give or take my wreckage past
Dies slowly away
And now the battle's begun
(Chorus)
Black promises, black promises
Face down in a hole, I'm sinkin' below
Till I face myself
I'm letting go, so on with the show
Till I face myself
Nevermind all the pity
I rattle on all the snakes I knew
I chewed the bone, got criticized
And hid all the pain
Beneath it all I still face the same face
(Chorus)(Chorus)
