Promise the lake
Don't try, don't be
Exist just like me

Promise shame
Every bit of everything is screaming so quietly
Is there anything else to say?

Are there any more words to sing?
Right after doubting all the things you claim
Right before giving all of it away

I thought I was ready to write
But you had me years ago
You had me at first sight

Even if it means nothing now
Promise these hands
No more empty praise and worship

Get lost at first sight
I'm driving my car away
I'm heading north

I thought I was ready to write
But you had me years ago
You had me at first sight

Even if it means nothing now
It hurts most in the mornings
And I wish I was in Chicago

Their statements are all contradictions
And I don't think they can figure it out
All our damages transform us

We're like our own historians
Is there anything else to say?
Are there anymore words to sing?

Every bit of everything is screaming
Promise the lake
Get lost at first sight
