The problem is, that these promises are only as good as the ones who make them.
We all have been ashamed of exactly the same things.
All I've got is a deep breath.

And I can hear you on the other side of the phone
Trying to pretend that I don't know
About all the problems you've come up with

Just to cover up this
Mess you've created out of something unrelated
to exactly what's going on.

We all have been ashamed of exactly the same things.
All I've got is a deep breath, and an excuse.
While I'm walking calmly in your wake

My anchors pull me further from the truth
I never meant to keep you hopeful
My anchors pull me further from you.

So please uncross your fingers.
Please uncross your fingers.
