Lyrics Old-Time Promises - Soltero

Old-Time Promises

Don’t trust yourself
You have permission from your friends
They are here to let you fall and tell you about it
Our new arrangement exclusively depends
On the solemnest agreement that we’ll never doubt it
But if these walls could talk they’d just be laughing
At promises that I pretend to keep
She tapped on the window
Put her nose against the glass
And said, «you hate your life, I know
But it’ll pass
And all your little deaths are nothing more
Than messy murders
It’s ugly work and your skills could take you further."
So I don’t trust myself with the promise of a future
I made a choice and decided never to doubt it
And I don’t think too much
I have permission from my friends
They are here to let me fall and tell me about it
But if these walls could talk they’d just be laughing
While we lay here and I pretend to sleep
If these walls could talk they’d just be laughing
At promises, old-time promises
That I would kill to keep
