Promises

Another day, another lie
Who are you to do this to me?
You take away, but never give
Why can’t you just say goodbye?
I cry, I beg
I plead for you to just walk on by
But I never saw all the power in you
With time you’ll understand
The subtle difference
Between taking someone’s hand
And chaining a helpless soul
And chaining a powerless soul
I begin to understand
That kisses are not contracts
Your gifts are not promises
That you pledge one more day
That you pledge one more day
That you pledge one more day
I begin to understand
That kisses are not contracts
Your gifts are not promises
That you pledge one more day
Another day, another lie
Inside my heart you’ve lead to decay
I carry the scars
On my skin
Every pore, of my body
You learn to build
Your roads on, everyday
Meat rots in the ground
And I’m decided to live
With time you’ll understand
The subtle difference
Between taking someone’s hand
And chaining a helpless soul
And chaining a powerless soul
I begin to understand
That kisses are not contracts
Your gifts are not promises
That you pledge one more day
That you pledge one more day
That you pledge one more day
I begin to understand
That kisses are not contracts
Your gifts are not promises
That you pledge one more day
