Lyrics All the Promises - Queensrÿche

All the Promises

Is there some other way out of here?
Somewhere I could find myself?
Can’t sleep enough, can’t stay high
All the promises… just another lie
I’ve always been afraid
Except in the moments that I loved you
The only time I felt strong
Was when you stood next to me
I could make a stand if
I could hold your hand again…
Mary:
The road I’ve traveled is the hard way down
Always playing another man’s fool
They offered a way inside
With the promise of forgiveness.
It’s a lie
Could you forgive what I’ve done?
We had it all, but couldn’t see anything
The blind leading the blind
Through the darkest night
When you said you loved me
It made me feel alive
Mary: When you said you loved me it made me feel…
Like I could fly
I’ve always lived afraid
Except in the moments that I loved you
The only time I felt strong
Was when you stood next to me
I could make a stand if
I could hold your hand again
We had it all, but couldn’t see anything
The blind leading the blind
Through the darkest of nights
When you said you loved me
It made me feel alive
Mary: When you said you loved me it made me feel…
Like I could fly
I’ve always been afraid
Except in the moments that I loved you
