This time is the last time that I will ever beg you to stay. For breaking all the promises that I wasn't around to keep. But your already on your way. Broken hearts and last goodbyes Restless nights but lullabies Helps make this pain go away I realize I

Left their letters in the sand Such waste of life Dreams of freedom turned to dust how many wasted lives How many dreams did fade away Broken promises They won't be coming home Oh mothers wipe your tears

You've given up on us Just another empty promise by those I love You've taken all I've made and all I've become Pushing me down flat on the ground trying to escape the pain I needed you to meet me half way But I'm left abandoned with nothing more to say

Too many broken promises Too many Trail of Tears Too many times you were left cold For oh so many years Too many times you walked away And was made to feel ashamed And though you only tried to give You were often blamed How can this world be so dark

I remember those songs on the radio The jasmine, the wind in your hair Summer and smoke, diamonds and dust Go where you will, do what you must The promise was made, your word was enough We had dreams, visions and plans Into the night, out of our hands

Too many broken promises Too many Trail of Tears Too many times you were left cold For oh so many years Too many times you walked away And was made to feel ashamed And though you only tried to give You were often blamed How can this world be so dark

Worlds are spinning 'round Don't forget to take a breath There's no time for slowing down So won't you take a breath? Just take a breath People change and promises are broken Clouds can move and skies will be wide open We've all been down that road

Sorry, won't turn back the clock Baby I took advantage 'cause I knew you Wouldn't believe it, so I used you I've tried to change but they always around, pulling me down in bed Gave you my word but they were just broken promises Broken condoms, lipstick

You've given up on us Just another empty promise by those I love You've taken all I've made and all I've become Pushing me down flat on the ground trying to escape the pain I needed you to meet me half way But I'm left abandoned with nothing more to say

Come past the lies We cannot be so blind Hear their cries The wait 'til daylight dies No more broken promises Slowly we watch the degradation of the civilization The rise and fall of all we are Stands here before us
