Gut-shot - Hollow Promise lyrics
rate meI'm eating leaves and saying prayers
Burning candles and splitting hairs
Digging up roots and shedding skin
Up to my eyes in shit again
Pre-counting eggs and rolling dice
Spitting fire and setting souls alight
Shaking legs and dancing all alone
Making beds and reaping what I've sown
I broke this promise
But I'll make you proud again
Forgetting paper and using walls
Forgotten dreams by my head I scrawl
The bittersweet memories are gone
I peel myself off the front lawn
At a stalemate with your convictions
But you don't know who you are
Never wanted to be you
That's why I fall so far
I broke this promise
But I'll make you proud again
We're dogs in heat, pigs in shit
We want it all and we roll in it
Nothing left at the end of the day
You forgot why you came this way
It's a double-edged sword
A paradigm of failure
Perfection on a pedestal
Is the cure that ails you
I broke this promise
And its not the last time
Just got to slay some demons
I'll make you proud again
