Gut-Shot lyrics : "Hollow Promise"
Burning candles and splitting hairs
Digging up roots and shedding skin
Up to my eyes in %#@! again
Pre-counting eggs and rolling dice
Spitting fire and setting souls alight
Shaking legs and dancing all alone
Making beds and reaping what I've sown
I broke this promise
But I'll make you proud again
Forgetting paper and using walls
Forgotten dreams by my head I scrawl
The bittersweet memories are gone
I peel myself off the front lawn
At a stalemate with your convictions
But you don't know who you are
Never wanted to be you
That's why I fall so far
I broke this promise
But I'll make you proud again
We're dogs in heat, pigs in %#@!
We want it all and we roll in it
Nothing left at the end of the day
You forgot why you came this way
It's a double-edged sword
A paradigm of failure
Perfection on a pedestal
Is the cure that ails you
I broke this promise
And its not the last time
Just got to slay some demons
I'll make you proud again
