Soul Asylum - Promises Broken lyrics

rate me

Streets are filled with broken glass

You get buried by the past

Give me just a little taste

Lay this mess to waste

Take me home

My mind is racing take me home

My body's achin'so alone

I'll make you want to stay with me

Befriended by the enemy

One more time

And every little thing about this tells me

Nothing out there is ever gonna help me

All these words that I hear spoken just promises broken now

Looking outside from my window sill

Throw another coin in the wishing well

You'll never find what you're looking for

Fifteen miles

Your dim light shines from so far away

Your sad smile

Is all I see when I say

That every little thing about this tells me

Nothing out there is ever gonna help me

All these words that I hear spoken just promises broken now

From the Hotel Satellite

Don't look like you're living right

Here's a deal you can't refuse

You ain't got as much to lose

Can you tell your troubles to

Someone who won't laugh at you

It's all right

And as I watch you walk away

Hope a part of you would stay

It's all right

And every little thing about this tells me

Nothing out there is ever gonna help me

All these words that I hear spoken just promises broken now
