Layne Harper - Broken Promises lyrics


ad
Promise that I've loved
Promise that I've loved
Promise that I've loved

I promise that if I relapse
You can leave me forever
Don't gotta take me back
Just promise me you'll never forgive me
Cause if you would I'd never leave
Swept the dirt under the rug
The rest is up to me
They'll come and sweep
Still underneath
That rug was lies and deceit for weeks
Lying through my teeth, too afraid to speak
Cause every other word is absurd
Soon as lightning strike I strike a nerve
For you I could tell you
Looking in the mirror I don't look familiar
Looking in the mirror I don't look familiar
Looking in the mirror I don't look familiar

Promise that? I will
Promise that? I will
Promise that? I will
Promise that? I will
Promise that? I will

I promise baby
Looking in the mirror I don't look familiar
Looking in the mirror I don't look familiar
Looking in the mirror I don't look familiar
Looking in the mirror I don't look familiar
Looking in the mirror I don't look familiar
Looking in the mirror I don't look familiar
Looking in the mirror I don't look familiar
Looking in the mirror I don't look familiar
Looking in the mirror I don't look familiar

The tables turn, I wait my turn
See you got a new man, your new man must be better
Than the fella that I used to be
Blindlessly I was losing you
You wasn't losing me
Foolishly I just fell none to it
Empty inside and my pride won't get me through it
I'm sorry about my promises
Found my truth where lies
Look into your eyes
Swear it was a...
Thought my heart was bulletproof
But when you shoot I die
Not ashamed as a man to tell the truth, I cry
The one you love the most will keep giving you lies
Until you overdose
Drag me closer to the holy ghost
Ashamed of my flaws, but nobody's perfect
To tell the truth baby, I'm hurting
Tell the truth baby I'm working
Office in the premises and all that comes with it
I'm sorry
Working on being better

Looking in the mirror I don't look familiar
Looking in the mirror I don't look familiar
Looking in the mirror I don't look familiar
Looking in the mirror I don't look familiar
Looking in the mirror I don't look familiar
Looking in the mirror I don't look familiar
