You wanna drive? Go take the keys Can't sit around in this make-believe This night might end unhappily There was a time I thought it could be Somebody stays, somebody leaves That bitter pill needs swallowing Bottom lip between your teeth Somebody else where I should be Promises, empty like the bed you sleep in Broken like the spell you're keeping Promises we can't believe in Promises, empty like the bed you sleep in Broken like the spell you're keeping Promises we can't believe in Why we even try to keep them? Objects are closer than they appear Growing in my eyes as fast as my fears Both my feet have fallen asleep Head to the dash in the passenger's seat I've been struck by your words like a train Hit with the way you left like rain hits the windowpane Not a drop at a time, but all at once Promises, empty like the bed you sleep in Broken like the spell you're keeping Promises we can't believe in Promises, empty like the bed you sleep in Broken like the spell you're keeping Promises we can't believe in Why we even try to keep them? Promises Broken like the spell you're keeping Promises we can't believe in Promises, empty like the bed you sleep in Broken like the spell you're keeping Promises we can't believe in Believe in Believe in Believe in Believe in
