Drink up, baby That you don't want around anymore That push and shove and won't bend to your will Stay up all night Things you could do You won't, but you might The potential you'll be You'll never see Promises you'll only make

All the promises we made (promises we made) All the meaningless and empty words I prayed Prayed, prayed All the promises we broke (promises we broke) All the meaningless and empty words I spoke Spoke, spoke

Oh, my god, I cry in fear Afraid you have forgot me here Afraid you haven’t gotten long Your quiet dove and faithful son I kept the promises I made I went to work, I worked all day When I wanted to run, I stayed Little children came and grew Moved away

Ash to ashes, dust to dust Skin to bone and steel to rust Skin to bone, steel to rust Will tomorrow have it's way With the promises we made Your deception, my disgust When your name is finally drawn I'll be happy that you're gone

All the promises we made (promises we made) All the meaningless and empty words I prayed Prayed, prayed All the promises we broke (promises we broke) All the meaningless and empty words I spoke Spoke, spoke
