Lyrics

Broken Promise

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.

We'll rise above this

We'll cry about this

As we live and learn

A broken promise

I was not honest

Now I watch as tables turn

And you're singing

I'll wait my turn

To tear inside you

Watch you burn

I'll wait my turn

I'll wait my turn

I'll cry about this

And hide my cuckold eyes

As you come off all concerned

And I'll find no solace

In your poor apology

In your regret that sounds absurd

Keep singing

I'll wait my turn

To tear inside you

Watch you burn

And I'll wait my turn

To terrorize you

Watch you burn

I'll wait my turn

I'll wait my turn

A Promise is a promise

A Promise is a promise

A Promise is a promise

A Promise is a promise

And I'll wait my turn

To tear inside you

Watch you burn

I'll wait my turn

I'll wait my turn

A broken promise

You were not honest

I'll bide my time

I'll wait my turn
