Promises Broken Lyrics

Streets are filled with broken glass
You get buried by the past
N give me just a little taste
Lay this mast to waste
Take me home

My mind is racing take me home
My body's aching so alone
I'll make you want to stay with me
Befriended by the enemy
One more time

And every little thing about this tells me
Nothing out there is ever gonna help me
All these words that I have spoken
Just promises broken now

Lookin' outside from my window sill
Throw another coin in the wishing well
Never find what your lookin' for

Fifteen miles
You took my chance
From so far away
You said smile
S'all I see when I say

And every little thing about this tells me
Nothing out there is ever gonna help me
All these words that I have spoken
Just promises broken now

From the hotel satellite
Don't look like you're livin' right
Here's a deal you can't refuse
You ain't got as much to lose

Can you tell your troubles to
Someone who won't laugh at you
It's all right

As I watch you walk away
Hope a part of you will stay
But it's all right

And every little thing about this tells me
Nothing out there is ever gonna help me
All these words that I have spoken
Just promises broken now
