Promise Songtext

von Laufey

I made a promise
To distance myself
Took a flight, through aurora skies
Honestly, I didn′t think about

How we didn't say goodbye
Just, "See you very soon"

It hurts to be something
It′s worse to be nothing
With you

So I didn't call you
For 16 long days
And I should get a cigarette
For so much restraint

No matter how long I resist temptation
I will always lose

It hurts to be something
It's worse to be nothing
With you

I′ve done the math, there′s no solution
We'll never last
Why can′t I let go of this?

So I broke my promise
I called you last night
I shouldn't have, I wouldn′t have
If it weren't for the sight of a boy

Who looked just like you
Standing out on Melrose Avenue

It hurts to be something
It′s worse to be nothing
With you

It hurts to be something
It's worse to be nothing
With you
