Promises

I... I...

Never meant to break my own promises

Never meant to break my own promises

(Promises, these promises, promises, these promises)

Again with excuses and generally wastin' my time

Not findin' solutions, just seekin' my peace of mind

No hocus or pocus, my focus is drunk on the floor

And mumbling something about, "one more!"

I'm fallin' across the line

Keep punchin' pedals at the amber lights

And I cross my heart and hope to die

Unless I happen to lie, I

Never meant to break my own promises

Never meant to break my own promises

Oh, one more night, I said it the last time

This is the last time, I'll say it a million more

Never meant to my break my own promises

Break my own promises

(Promises, these promises, promises, these promises)

I said I was tryin', I really was drivin' the coast

The fight or the flight, well, I side with the latter most

It almost is laughable, but when I chuckle, I choke

Can't get the words out my throat, oh, one more

Is that my lion's pride?

I meet my mountain, then I run and hide

And I cross my heart and hope to die

Unless I happen to lie, I

Never meant to break my own promises

Never meant to break my own promises

Oh, one more night, I said it the last time

This is the last time, I'll say it a million more

Never meant to my break my own promises

Break my own promises

(Promises, these promises, promises, these promises)
