I`m out here everyday
Breaking hearts along the way
I cause tears to fall
And some to lose it all.
This old world would be better off without me
But I`m the saddest words you`ve spoken
I`m a promise broken
I`m the ballgame you missed
I`m the calls that don`t come in.
I`m every poor excuse you used
To cover up the truth
I tell the people that you love
That they don`t matter quite enough.
There`s no stopping me once I`m in motion
I`m a promise broken
Disappointment, disillusion, despair, confusion
I`ve seen it all in your eyes.
Don`t promise you, well
If you want don`t say, say you do
If you don`t it`s alright to say you`re trying
I get pushed aside
When you move on with your life
But I`ll stand the test of time
In your heart and in your mind.
You`ll think about me now and then
Wonder how your life might have been
But I will leave you never knowing
I`m a promise broken..
I`m a promise broken...
