"Broken Promises" lyrics

"Broken Promises"

If everything is really as it seems
Then why do I feel you're lying through your teeth?
When no one's watchin'
And you stop pretendin'
I wonder how quickly you'd
Grab a knife just to run it down my spine
No hesitation to make me bleed
With betrayal on the mind
You fantasize and seethe
But you forgot one thing:
I'm not a lost dog begging for a home
Wishing for someone to take control and make me feel I'm not alone
You have no leverage on me

If you want to be
Another casualty
Then step up keep your neck exposed
Your ego is about to explode

I'm seeing through
The person you claim to be
I'm not falling for it
I'm not falling for it
I'm not falling for it
There's no convincing me
I've had enough of your broken promises

If you had a fucking ounce of respect for yourself
You'd shut the fuck up

With you it's always playing make believe
Will you ever stop lying through your teeth?
When will you stand up
And get the fuck up
And tell the truth?

I'm seeing through
The person you claim to be
I'm not falling for it
I'm not falling for it
I'm not falling for it
There's no convincing me
I've had enough of your broken promises

I've had enough
I'm not falling for it
There's no convincing me

I'm seeing through you
I'm seeing through you

Listen to all the voices you drown out
You refuse to change
When the key is right in front of you
You
You
I'm fucking sick of it

I'm seeing through
The person you claim to be
I'm not falling for it
I'm not falling for it
I'm not falling for it
There's no convincing me
I've had enough of your broken promises

Your broken promises

I'm fucking sick of it
