Lyrics Tarja Turunen

Tarja Turunen

Dead Promises

Why have you wasted the time

Drown in hideous nights?

Oh, why have you woken the thoughts

Of a paranoid mind?

I've seen the walls collapsing,

Breaking down, countless times

The one that keeps on pulling you under

Do you know him at all?

Dead promises

Games you play will kill your dreams

I'm still here where you belong

Stop running from the truth

Dead promises

I can't change what you believe

Promises mean everything

Life won't look back for you

Why can't you see that your powers

Will weaken and fall?

Oh, why you seem to forget

What you make us recall?

I've seen the walls collapsing,

Breaking down, countless times

The one that keeps on pulling you under

Do you know him at all?

Dead promises

Games you play will kill your dreams

Promises mean everything

Life won't look back for you

Dead promises

Games you play will kill your dreams

I'm still here where you belong

Stop running from the truth

Dead promises

I won't change what you believe

Promises mean everything

Life won't look back for you

Dead promises!
