Why'd You Promise Me

by Andy loves Jesus   Oct 11, 2007


We've been living a while.
up and down things in style.
But I never seem to feel safe.

Knowing you gave up on the past.
And just rushed to get back fast.
What can I say except too late.

We've made commitments.
But you broke them soo soon.
I dont think I can handle anymore.

YOU PROMISED ME WE'D BE TOGETHER.
LOVING EVERDAY I DID YET YOU SHATTERED.
EVERYTHING I OWN WAS BUILT INSIDE YOU.
WHEN YOU LEFT IT ALL WENT DOWN WITH NO USE.
WHY'D YOU PROMISE ME. WHY'D YOU LIE TO ME.

Standing at my front doorstep.
With tears rolling down your upset.
But you can't come down on me.

Needing a place to clean your mess.
You get this idea that you should confess.
I don't wanna hear WHAT YOU THINK WE COULD BE.

We made commitments.
But their gone erased for life.
Never will I go through the pain again.

YOU PROMISED ME WE'D BE TOGETHER.
LOVING EVERDAY I DID YET YOU SHATTERED.
EVERYTHING I OWN WAS BUILT INSIDE YOU.
WHEN YOU LEFT IT ALL WENT DOWN WITH NO USE.
WHY'D YOU PROMISE ME. WHY'D YOU LIE TO ME.

You can sleep in the spareroom tonight.
But tomorrow you've got to find a better life.
Beyond mistakes and failures you will understand.

Don't talk to me about how sorry you are.
I know where you've been everynight at the bar.
So never again will I feel to hold your hand.

Push aside commitments.
There's more for us then that.
I'm saying for the last time this is the end.
