Empty promises - leave them on the nightstand
Empty promises - leave them on my cheek
Empty promises - tell me that you still care,
even when you're not there to listen to my dreams.
Empty promises - leave them in my pocket,
Empty promises - right before my eyes
Empty promises - say you'll never leave me,
then when you deceive me, I'll act like I'm surprised.
Empty promises - gazing out the window
Empty promises - waiting for your call
Empty promises - sitting at the table
darling, I'm not able to stop myself at all.
Empty promises - why do people tell them
Empty promises - they're better than the truth
Empty promises - we both know there's no chance
to have some great romance between me and you.
Empty promises - why can't we admit it,
Empty promises - call each other's bluff,
Empty promises - just shake hands and walk out,
Even Steven, we're out, and take a stab at love?
Empty promises - we've already promised
Empty promises - to change each other's lives
Empty promises - so what if the change
is merely to arrange to gouge each other's eyes?
