Promise

Violent Femmes
Promise

Y'know that i want your loving
But my logic tells me that it aint never gonna happen
And then my defense'd say i did't want it anyway
But you know sometimes i'm a lier
Could you ever want me to love you
Could you ever want me to care
Disregard my nervousness
Please ignore my vacant stares
Cause just what i've been thru
Is nothing like where i'm going to
Give me some sign to persue
A promise

And your unhappy
This is only a guess

Do you know what it's like to hate
When it's way down deep inside

Oh god i hate what's been done to my life
I could rule the pain
I could rule the night

Or would i ruin my salvation

Ruin my mind rules your pains
Rulers of the night
Ruin your salvation

Ruin yor mind
