Broken Promises

Picking up the broken pieces
Is what I do best
I stitch them all and lay them for you
To put them to the test

Sitting in this darkened room
With nowhere else to go
These endless nights turn into years
How many left to throw

And I have tried
So many times
To let this go
But I'm still shackled on my own

If we take it slow this time
We might still make it out alive
Broken promises I've kept
Seek shelter in my mind

Picking up the broken pieces
Is what I do best
I stitch them all and lay them for you
And let you do the rest

And I have tried
So many times to heal
But I can't hide
This fear is seeping through the seams

If we take it slow this time
We might still make it out alive
Broken promises I've kept
Seek shelter in my mind

Licking your wounds in a darkened room
Day after day, year after year (year after year after year)
Is like blending gold with mud and stone
And watch it fall
Watch it disappear

If we take it slow this time
We might still make it out alive
Broken promises I've kept
Seek shelter in my mind

If we take it slow this time
We'll make it out alive
I've kept your broken promises tonight
