lyrics

You give me your promise of forever,
Can I trust what you say?
With that broken chip on your shoulder,
You give me your play,
I’ve seen it all, I’m not naïve,
It’s nothing new, your heartless sleeve,
Your fragile ways, your decadence,
Your toxic games, your irreverence,
(Chorus)
You’ve crossed your bridge of life,
And you’ve climbed your mountain of pride,
And you love the power,
But you’re a thorn in my side,
Your man killing days aren’t over,
That’s what you do,
Running round you’re acting clean and sober,
Tell me ‘What’s the use?’
You say a prayer, you close your eyes,
You pout your lips, you live off lies,
Your masquerade, your pantomime,
Your foolish thoughts, another line,
(Chorus)
I gaze up the skies tearing open,
And I fall to my knees,
Our sunset, impure and broken,
No longer will I believe!
