Lyrics Promises and Empty Words - Scars on 45

Promises and Empty Words

Is there a reason why
That everyone I’ve known never let me down gently?
Between the loss and the lies
I’m always drowned out by silence
Drowned out by silence
Well, every word that you laid
Was selfish, you lass, and it hurt me from the first call
But now I know that I’m saved
You can keep all your silence
Keep all your silence
And no more waiting in a cold bed for you
I’ll never hear another lie fall out of your mouth
Your promises and empty words surround you
Why should I be the one
To give this everything?
If I could open my eyes
I’d know that everything you do never catches me falling
And with the times that we fight
There’s a home filled with silence
Home filled with silence
And no more waiting in a cold bed for you
I’ll never hear another lie fall out of your mouth
Your promises and empty words surround you
Why should I be the one
To give this everything?
And no more waiting in a cold bed for you
I’ll never hear another lie fall out of your mouth
Your promises and empty words surround you
Why should I be the one?
Why should I be the one?
