Black Promises

Everything's moving backwards
It's been that way for so long
When all my cries like butterflies
Drift slowly away, I can't relate to no one

Sifting through all my so called friends
Ain't what I like to do
But give or take my wreckage past
Dies slowly away and now the battle's begun

Black promises, black promises
Face down in a hole, I'm sinkin' below
Till I face myself, I'm letting go
So on with the show till I face myself

Never mind all the pity, I rattle on
All the snakes I knew, I chewed the bone
Got criticized and hid all the pain
Beneath it all I still face the same face

Black promises, black promises
Face down in a hole, I'm sinkin' below
Till I face myself, I'm letting go
So on with the show till I face myself

Black promises, black promises
Face down in a hole, I'm sinkin' below
Till I face myself, I'm letting go
So on with the show till I face myself
