"Promises (9am)" lyrics

"Promises (9am)"

Faking that you love me is easy
But the hill you're dying on isn't breezy
Wasting the day away, calling me over
But there's nothing to say

There's something about my past that you like
But opportunities come with lies
So I gave it to you straight in the moment

But I can tell that you don't make promises
But I can't let you go
I can't let you go
I can tell that you don't make promises
But I can't let you go
I can't let you go
But I don't wanna run away

You just wanna know that I need you
Initials on my flat you had keys too
But the villain in the story
Couldn't make sense of what's going on

You say there's so much strength in your flaws
So we're staying on, chained to the cause
But only if you're going where I go

'Cause I can tell that you don't make promises
But I can't let you go
I can't let you go
I can tell that you don't make promises
But I can't let you go
I can't let you go
But I don't wanna run away

Did you really think it was easy?
No one to trust, moving on like a mack truck
Every moment of bad luck
Got me thinking we matched up
But did you really offer much?
Did you?
Oh, did you?

But I can tell that you don't make promises
But I can't let you go
I can't let you go
I cannot let you go
I can tell that you don't make promises
But I can't let you go
I can't let you go
