Plastic Promises
Set It Off
Just give me a chance
She said as I packed my things
But I already did 4 times, don't you remember?
I won't blow it again
She said with her fingers crossed
But she forgot about the mirror behind her
I'm done with plastic promises
Please, don't tell me that we're fine
I got too much on my mind
Isn't this too plain to see? Maybe
'Cause we've lost too much to gain
We were dancing in the rain
Tell me what am I to do
With a double dose of you?
Of those of you
Her lips are the gun
And her tongue are the bullets
She could save a life
But she took mine away instead
We gave it our all
So don't call me a quitter, no!
And I've swear I've tried too many times before but
I'm done with plastic promises
Please don't tell me that we're fine
I got too much on my mind
Isn't this too plain to see? Maybe
'Cause we've lost too much to gain
We were dancing in the rain
Tell me what am I to do
With a double dose
With a double dose of you?
Don't try to defy or even make an attempt
My blinders are off and I am runnin' again from you
Am I ok? Am I ok? I know I'll be ok again
Are you ready?
So here we go, I know
You'd kill for everything to stay the same
In vain, we had to go our separate ways
When you proved to me that you would never change
I finally woke up and exclaimed
That I'm done with these plastic promises
Please don't tell me that we're fine ('cause we're not)
I got too much on my mind
Isn't this too plain to see? Maybe
'Cause we've lost too much to gain
We were dancing in the rain
Tell me what am I to do
With a double dose of
With a double dose of you?
