S

broken promises and bald face lies

You lay in the dark all alone you are nothing but skin and bones
You barely breathing your heart is racing but you are alive if you want to live get in that car and drive
No one's coming to save you no one cares if you stop breathing and turn blue
No one is coming except to dig you a grave they once gave you a medal for meritorious service they said you did something Brave
Hear you are laying on the cold hard ground crying whining like a little bitty baby that you're dying
Well I guess if I was in your shoes, I know exactly what I do
I would just quit Yep that's right that’s what I would do I just sit
By myself on this cold hard ground and die Yep yep that's what I would do man yep yep I would just say my good-byes
So many broken promises so many bald face lies just left you out here to die
They stole all your tools made you look like a fool
So you can sit out here in the desert and cry that makes a lot of sense just to sit out here by yourself never eating anymore pie
Your right let's get this over quick here's a gun don't you get mad at me it's not my fault you're no fun
Your complaining and whining that your hurt please someone save me there no one out here can’t you see your alone man alone except you and those dam bees
What you shoot me with that gun that’s funny man no bullets I empty them on the ground I'm not stupid like you now I would be in that car driving back to town
Even if it took my last breath yep that's what I do even if it meant my death
So many broken promises so many bald face lies they just left you out here to die
Today we put a man in his grave because he couldn’t get himself up to be saved
You can whine and cry about all the broken promises and all those bald face lies
But until you say that's enough and change your ways your life is only going to be broken promises and bald face lies everyday
