"Somebody Promised You" lyrics

"Somebody Promised You"

How can this be the same place
I thought I was moving
Thought I was getting somewhere
Man it's so confusing
I was just here
Feels like it's been a long long race
How did I end up
Back in the same place

Tell me who promised you
A happy ever after?
Who promised you
You were gonna find the gold?
Whoever promised you
You were gonna go to heaven?
Tell me who promised you
You would never grow old?

Who promised you?

Tell me who promised you
That you deserve the truth?
Tell me who promised you
You get to do what you wanna do?
Tell me who promised you
You get to marry a movie star?
Who promised you
You could be whoever you think you are?

Who promised you?
Tell me who promised you

Who promised you
You were gonna make it out?
Whoever told you
That you weren't worth it anyhow?
Somebody promised you
I was someone you were gonna find?
Who promised you
You were getting out alive?

Tell me who promised you
Somebody must have promised you
Somebody must have promised you

Tell me who promised you
You get roses on Valentine's day?
Who promised you
You get to sing your own song?
Tell me who promised you
That it's gonna all work out someday?
Who promised you
You get to see your mom?

Tell me who promised you
'Cause somebody promised you
Come on tell me who promised you

Tell me who promised you
That you get to be the black sheep?
Who promised you
You get to take it out on me?
Tell me who promised you
You get to ride the carousel?
Who promised you
You get to feel sorry for yourself?

Who promised you?
Somebody promised you
Tell me who promised you
Somebody promised you
Hey, yeah yeah yeah!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Somebody

How can this be the same place
I thought I was moving
Thought I was getting somewhere
Man it's so confusing
I was just here
This whole time feels like a long race
How the fuck did I
End up in the same place

Somebody promised you
Tell me who promised you
Somebody promised you
