Empty Promise Songtext
Gold light upon my face
Encased by grace and chemicals
Won′t lie, it's been a while since I was honest
45 and the sunsets slow
You climb upon my collarbone
False fires and compromise with no direction
The pages burn, the tables turn
And I′m starting over, will I learn?
I paid the cost, I held my loss
And I kept on running just to stop from coming undone
But I'm not made of stone
I am just skin and bone
And it's time I′m honest
I′m waiting on an empty promise
But I'm not made of stone
I am just skin and bone
And it′s time I'm honest
I′m waiting on an empty promise
(I'm waiting on an empty promise)
Hold high what I do not know
And place myself in centerfold
Stoned bright and sinking like a cannonball
Watered eyes and dominos
I tried to fit inside your mould
Crystalised, better on my own (better on my own)
The pages burn, the tables turn
And I′m starting over, will I learn?
I paid the cost, I held my loss
And I kept on running just to stop from coming undone
But I'm not made of stone
I am just skin and bone
And it's time I′m honest
I′m waiting on an empty promise
But I'm not made of stone
I am just skin and bone
And it′s time I'm honest
I′m waiting on an empty promise
(I'm waiting on an empty promise)
(I′m waiting on an empty promise)
Encased by grace and chemicals
Won′t lie, it's been a while since I was honest
45 and the sunsets slow
You climb upon my collarbone
False fires and compromise with no direction
The pages burn, the tables turn
And I′m starting over, will I learn?
I paid the cost, I held my loss
And I kept on running just to stop from coming undone
But I'm not made of stone
I am just skin and bone
And it's time I′m honest
I′m waiting on an empty promise
But I'm not made of stone
I am just skin and bone
And it′s time I'm honest
I′m waiting on an empty promise
(I'm waiting on an empty promise)
Hold high what I do not know
And place myself in centerfold
Stoned bright and sinking like a cannonball
Watered eyes and dominos
I tried to fit inside your mould
Crystalised, better on my own (better on my own)
The pages burn, the tables turn
And I′m starting over, will I learn?
I paid the cost, I held my loss
And I kept on running just to stop from coming undone
But I'm not made of stone
I am just skin and bone
And it's time I′m honest
I′m waiting on an empty promise
But I'm not made of stone
I am just skin and bone
And it′s time I'm honest
I′m waiting on an empty promise
(I'm waiting on an empty promise)
(I′m waiting on an empty promise)
