Empty Promise

Gold light upon my face
 Encased by grace and chemicals
 Won't lie, it's been a while since I was honest
 45 and the sunsets slow
 You climb upon my collarbone
 False fires and compromise with no direction
 The pages burn, the tables turn
 And I'm starting over, will I learn?
 I paid the cost, I held my loss
 And I kept on running just to stop from coming undone
 ♪
 But I'm not made of stone
 I am just skin and bone
 And it's time I'm honest
 I'm waiting on an empty promise
 But I'm not made of stone
 I am just skin and bone
 And it's time I'm honest
 I'm waiting on an empty promise
 ♪
 (I'm waiting on an empty promise)
 Hold high what I do not know
 And place myself in centerfold
 Stoned bright and sinking like a cannonball
 Watered eyes and dominos
 I tried to fit inside your mould
 Crystalised, better on my own (better on my own)
 The pages burn, the tables turn
 And I'm starting over, will I learn?
 I paid the cost, I held my loss
 And I kept on running just to stop from coming undone
