Promise Me

On an empty corner of your grace
I scratch into my eyes until I fall
A mythic vision I thought pass as age
Behind a girl left behind
Behind a girl left behind
Our faces need a little sunshine
To go blind
Our faces need a little sunshine
To go blind
You promise me
I was safe from spells
You promise me
You turn back on
You promise me
I get another shot
You promise me
You were there
She showered me with kisses like gunga din
She riddled me with sex like magic sound
Pausin' on your riot I got lost
Behind the girl left behind
Behind the girl left behind
Our faces need a little sunshine
Our faces need a little sunshine
To go blind
To go blind
You promised me
I was a lazy catch
You promised me
A steady climb
You promised me
There where our lives around the block
Your promised me
You'd be there not here
And flawlessly she muttered her last lines
From a play long rumored long got lost
About crimes and crimea
Behind a girl left behind
Behind a girl left behind
Our faces need a little sunshine
To go blind
