The Promise (feat. Tristan Woodroffe) - Andrei Fossari & DiscoRocks

Docile and ready to connect to your controlled smile Your eyes don't match up with your grin You try to model all that there is left of your face Meanwhile, there's been a murder at the home They found no body, just the bones They found a mummy left alone Docile and just about to snap I didn't hit him in the head Had no idea he'd be dead Another bloody Sunday afternoon Here alone in the backrooms I've been controlling my convictions under supreme superstition I think you know what I know And it's the end of it all Hostile and ready to compete I crave destruction for defeat Technology that's obsolete I cannot fathom the way that you see me The way you use your faint heartbeat to illustrate the debt of me Don't you take my life away I heard you say I have been so good today I swear I'll change Don't you take my life Another bloody Sunday afternoon Here alone in the backrooms I've been controlling my convictions under supreme superstition I think you know what I know And it's the end of it all

I never said that I would give you silver or gold Or that you would never feel the fire or shiver in the cold But I did say you'd never walk through this world alone (Hmm) And I did say, don't make this world your home I never said that fear wouldn't find you in the night Or that loneliness was something you'd never have to fight But I did say I'd be right there by your side And I did say I'll always help you fight 'Cause you know I made a promise that I intend to keep My grace will be sufficient in every time of need And my love will be the anchor that you can hold onto This is the promise, this is the promise I made to you I never said that friends would never turn their backs on you Or that the world around you wouldn't see you as a fool But I did say like me you'll surely be despised And I did say my ways confound the wise I didn't say you'd never taste the bitter kiss of death Or have to walk through chilly Jordan to enter into rest But I did say I'd be waiting right on the other side (Yeah, yeah) And I did say I'll dry every tear you cry 'Cause you know I made a promise that I've prepared a place And some day sooner than you think you'll see me face to face And you'll sing with the angels and a countless multitude This is the promise, this is the promise I've made to you So just keep on walkin', don't turn to the left or right And in the midst of darkness, let this be your light That hell can't separate us and you're gonna make it through This is the promise, this is the promise I've made to you Oh, this is the promise, this is the promise I've made to you

Who is it? You again, thought you left But you never go too far Remember when we overslept? That morning when our thing fell apart But I never learn, I always lust And over trust I do it to myself But I can't be burying these feelings When it's the best thing that I ever felt You got my promise again You had me pining when you left Knowing it's been ages I'm taking it in Thought I was fine, ooh Need to leave you behind Maybe by September I Would have tried enough of other stuff To know that you weren't right But we never learn We always lust and over trust It happens overnight I don't wanna be your enemy Or something you need to pass the time So excuse me if this comes as green But sometimes I just wanna go back and rewind You got my promise again You had me pining when you left Knowing it's been ages I'm taking it in Thought I'd be fine, ooh Need to leave you behind Need to leave you behind It's been a long time, same decisions I make Slowly lead me back to you I'm in the open, lose all sense of knowing Are you onto someone new? Yeah It's been a burden, but the burden I'll take For a day or two It leaves me longing for a certain moment I hear a familiar tune
