Now the oil's gone And the money's gone All the jobs are gone Still we're hangin' on Down in dry county To wash the sins from off our hands Praying for some holy water The promise has run dry Where nobody cries

You deserve more than I can promise And I'm just tryna, I'm just tryna Baby, I'm just tryna be honest But I got to be honest And I know that I'll probably regret it I'm tryna be honest with ya You know that I'm sorry But I'm tryna be honest with ya I

How do I get back to you Get back to you Tell me baby I don't know where to begin Is there nothing I can do To change the state I'm in And I know I've made a mess of it Every promise betrayed You say that I'll never change

And why can't you see its tearing away what I used to be Oh, so far from home being shallow and alone I'm a shadow of a soul Anywhere I go, anything I try Anyone I love is compromised Everyone I see, staring on back at me Why can't you let me be I don't

If I fell in love with you 'Cause I couldn't stand the pain And I would be sad if our new love was in vain So I hope you see that I Would love to love you And that she will cry When she learns we are two Would you promise to be true And help me understand

She didn't make it this far by just shakin' hands She'll shake her money maker twice as hard as anyone can Far too pretty to be giving it cheap That's why she's making six figures working three days a week Ya she'd even break a promise in the promised

Sin after sin So, you don't realize exactly what you do And though you never compromise It's all been up to you The lie you've been leading Has you up to here in sin You never like to think about it Now you just can't win You're committing

Clockwork angels, promise every prize High above the city square Globes of light float in mid-air Higher still, against the night Clockwork angels bathed in light You promise every treasure, to the foolish and the wise Goddesses of mystery, spirits in

Promise me this and only this, Holy breath touching me, like a wind song Sweet communion of a kiss Sun sifting through the grey Enter in, reach me with a ray Silently swooping down, just to show me How to give my heart away ove rising from the mists,

I'll remember you Hey, what's your name? 'Cause I need to know I've been high and I've been low Far beyond and far below Never seen you before If I die before I wake Promise me you'll remember me tomorrow
