Jelly Roll - Promise

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/309383
verse 1
In a world that's full of hope, why am i alone?
Had this feeling so long my serotonin's gone
Even when i get high, why do i feel so low?
Never good at goodbyes, i hold on
I hate the man i see when i see myself
A reflection of hell

chorus
I told myself it’s different it’s so hard to believe
I know that i won’t change so i sold another dream
All the lives i told are burning holes inside
And i don’t, i don’t know why
I broke a promise to myself

verse 2
As i stand here again all covered in mud
And i’m drenched in my sins
What have i become?
I said the last time that would be my last time
Not good at goodbyes, i hold on
If i jumped off this ledge would you catch my fall?
Would you care at all?

chorus
I told myself it’s different it’s so hard to believe
I know that i won’t change so i sold another dream
All the lives i told are burning holes inside
And i don’t, i don’t know why
I broke a promise to myself

bridge
All the stages of shaken
All the roads that i’ve taken
Wondering if i can really make it
Feeling so depressed i’ve been humbled and humiliated
All the truth i’ve mistaken for the things i thought saved me
It’s like nobody knows
At any given second i feel like i might explode

chorus
I told myself it’s different it’s so hard to believe
I know that i won’t change so i sold another dream
All the lives i told are burning holes inside
And i don’t, i don’t know why
I broke a promise to myself
