Promises Lyrics by Jhariah

The Great Tale Of How I Ruined It All

0

[Intro]
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
Your time is up
End of the line
What will you do about your promises
You bit off more than you can chew

[Verse 1]
I screamed at the top of my swollen lungs
“You’ll never get away with this”
I’ll be your villain if that’s what it takes
To continue burning how I’ve been

[Pre-Chorus]
I promise this isn’t the end
As they dragged me away by my neck
Desperately gasping for air
I swore to all of you that I’d get my revenge
And you’ll want yours
When your kingdom falls in blazing glory
Then we’ll see who’s won
When your pawns betray your every single will

[Chorus]
So when you go, won't you close the door?
Behind the world you used to own
Cause it won’t be yours anymore
I won’t break all the promises
I made to resist everything you do And everything you say

[Verse 2]
When you tried to take the spark in our eyes
Did you think it could go this wrong
I’d suggest that you raise your white flag high
Cause you lost when your puppets reclaimed their lives

[Pre-Chorus]
I promised this to all my friends
To protect our identities
Desperately fighting for a chance I swore to
All of you that I'd get my revenge
And you’ll want yours
When your kingdom falls in blazing glory
Then we’ll see who’s won
When your pawns betray your every single will

[Chorus]
So when you go, won't you close the door?
Behind the world you used to own
Cause it won’t be yours anymore
I won’t break all the promises
I made to resist everything you do And everything you say
So when you go, won't you close the door?
Behind the world you used to own
Cause it won’t be yours anymore
I won’t break all the promises
I made to resist everything you do And everything you say

[Bridge]
So give a round of applause
To your "brainless audience"
To all of your "loyal pawns"
To their mindless radiance

[Chorus]
So when you go, won't you close the door?
Behind the world you used to own
Cause it won’t be yours anymore
I won’t break all the promises
I made to resist everything you do And everything you say
So when you go, won't you close the door?
Behind the world you used to own
Cause it won’t be yours anymore
I won’t break all the promises
I made to resist everything you do And everything you say
