Promises - The Dirty Youth

Same look in your eyes

Full of the lies

That you told your friends

Stories that never seem to end

They just get deeper

I understand you

But I just can’t stand you

Turn away to hide, looks of disgrace

It all makes sense to me now

As you fall to pieces

I can’t live with

Anymore false promises

Why is it that you persist?

Is there something I keep missing?

I can’t hold on

To anymore false promises

How did it all come to this?

Is there something I keep missing?

Same look on your face

Hiding the lies with a bitter taste

The confident sickness

That you embrace

As you get beaten

I’ll exchange you

'Cause I just can’t change you

Turn away to hide, looks of dis grace

It all makes sense to me now

As you fall to pieces

I can’t live with

Anymore false promises

Why is it that you persist?

Is there something I keep missing?

I can’t hold on

To anymore false promises

How did it all come to this?

Is there something I keep missing?

As the night comes closing in

It’s cold when you’re not home

Are we better of alone?

Am I better off alone?

Same wheels turning

I’m not yearning, I’ve been learning

I can’t live with

Anymore false promises

Why is it that you persist?

Is there something I keep missing?

I can’t hold on

To anymore false promises

How did it all come to this?

Is there something I keep missing?
