Promises Songtext
von Steve Grimmett

How did you feel when you lost your soul?
How did you deal when you lost your mind?
What did it take when you walked away?
Was it all greed on the other side?

We take our liberty and put it in their face
Scared to stand up on their own
Too many saints and sinners tryin′ to win this race
Take a look at what we've done

How many promises?
How many will it take?
Take a look at all we′ve lost
From the eyes of a broken man

How many times did it get to you?
Always the same up against the time
Everyone else put their trust in you
Amateur fame, never were they fine


We take our liberty and put it in their face
Scared to stand up on their own
Too many saints and sinners tryin' to win this race
Take a look at what we've done

How many promises?
How many will it take?
Take a look at all we′ve lost
From the eyes of a broken man
(How many promises?)
How many promises?
(How many will it take?)
Take a look at all we′ve lost
From the eyes of a broken man

"What do you wanna call me a murderer for?
I've never killed anyone
There′s no need to feel guilty
I haven't done anything I′m ashamed of
I wouldn't do anything that I felt guilty about
I did not have sexual relations with that woman
I never told anybody it′s a lie
Not a single time, never"


How many promises?
How many will it take?
Take a look at all we've lost
From the eyes of a broken man
(How many promises?)
How many promises?
(How many will it take?)
Will it take?
(Take a look at all we've lost)
From the eyes of a broken man
