Promise

Tell me why you’ve become so damned unconsenting

The way you make me feel is so condescending

So help me!

Cross my heart and hope to die

You swore on your God

You never told a lie

So commit yourself to me

Under hand and seal

Undertake this sacred oath

Immolate this deal

On your word of honour

Consummate this pact

Bind yourself with me

Finalise this act

Promise me...promises...promising...

Promise me the world

Promise me...promises...promising...

Promise me the world

Make vows you won’t keep

I can’t trust in your word

If you think you can fool me

Then you must be absurd

You say you’ve been faithful

On this you swear

There’s nothing to see

Cause nothing’s there

Do you really expect me to give credence in this deception

When I know your truth is nothing but perversion

You think you can lie to me

And get away with it all

You think that I’m a jerk

Can’t believe your gall

I should have always known

It would never last

I’ll never forget

Lies form the past

Promise me...promises...promising...

Promise me the world

Promise me...promises...promising...

Promise me the world

Promise me...promises...promising...

Promise me the world

Promise me...promises...promising...

Promise me the world

Promise me...promises...promising...

Promise me the world

Promise me...promises...promising...

Promise me the world
