Promises - Monophonics

I knew a man

Who lied to the world

Hid from the truth,

Lived a life with no rules

I knew a man

He lied to himself

Scared of reality

Scared to ask for help

And he made promises

But they were all just lies

And he broke promises

Bringing tears to their eyes

And he made promises

That he could never ever keep

Breaking his promises

Leaving broken hearts to weep

I had a friend

Who had big dreams

Took on the world

But soon turned to schemes

I had a friend

Though he became a stranger

Hid from the world,

Lived a life high on danger

And he made promises

But they were all just lies

And he broke promises

Bringing tears to their eyes

And he made promises

That he could never ever keep

Breaking his promises

Disapointment runs deep

And he made promises

But they were all just lies

And he broke promises

Bringing tears to their eyes

And he made promises

That he could never ever keep

I’m breaking his promises

And the bad blood runs deep

And he made promises

But they were all just lies

And he broke promises

Bringing tears to my eyes

And he made promises

That he could never ever keep

He’s breaking his promises

And the bad blood runs deep
