Dark Promises Songtext
von Matt Mays

I met her in the spring
When the earth began to breathe again
She snuck in with the dawn
And just like summer she was gone

Lonely is just a word
And it don′t mean shit to me
'Cause I′m a hummingbird in hawk wings
Designed to be free

And all your dark promises are gone
And the tears that fall down my face
Soon will turn to stone now

And all your dark promises are gone
'Cause I'm sick of throwing stones up at your window

Broken hearts beat harder
On highways built along the water
How many times do I gotta tell you
It′s all in your mind


Nothing is what it seems
We′re just dust in the arclight beams
Shining off the back of my eyelids
While I lay here
While I lay here trying to dream

And all your dark promises are gone
And the tears that fall down my face
Soon will turn to stone now
And all your dark promises are gone
'Cause I′m sick of throwing stones up at your window

For the love
For the love
For the love

For the love
For the love
For the love

And all your dark promises are gone
And the tears that fall down my face
Soon will turn to stone now

And all your dark promises are gone
Yeah all your dark promises are gone
Are gone
Are gone
