Pleaded and begged asked you for nothing, but something showed. You're uneasy now, the sweat on your forehead Everyone's pointing your nervousness out. It's obvious now that you're scared of yourself. Nothing to keep them from knowing this now, (Play Pre-Chorus) There's nothing to keep them from knowing this now. (Play Chorus) Promises, shattered pieces, memories of nothing. Cowardly you'll face this all alone. (Play Main Riff) (Play Verse) You're looking a truth nothing but lies still no one knows. You see your self run but i see you crawling to face the truth. You're hesitant now your heart must be partin., Ripping and tearing your insides are numb. Fleshless and weak time to start over. Nothing to keep them from emptiness now. (Play Pre-Chorus) There's nothing to keep them from emptiness now. (Play Chorus) Promises, shattered pieces, memories of nothing. Cowardly you'll face this all alone. Promises, shattered pieces, memories of nothing. Cowardly you'll face this all alone. (Play Bridge) You know how this will end, Cause the pain inside in your head is cutting yourself thin. Nothing to do now when you're buried underground. Your promise haunts you now. (Play Main Riff) (Play Chorus) Promises, shattered pieces, memories of nothing. Cowardly you'll face this all alone. Promises, shattered pieces, memories of nothing. Cowardly you'll face this all alone. (Play Piano Intro)
