Inside Promises

(album: Hell City - 2009)

When the drugs and the heroin become your best of friends
When the diamonds are worth more than the blood in your skin
You've found the end, You've found the end
With a Hollywood smile, you've found the end

God damn they're attacking
The cameras are flashing
Your staminas crashing
You're stranded and gasping
Man I understand this is fashion
But headaches don't disappear when they hand you an aspirin
I understand your struggle
You need a man to love you
Not a man to fuck you
But a man to touch you in every possible way that he can
Just to let you know that you're the greatest on this planet
What we need is a covenant
Don't beef with your publicist
I need you to cover this
I need you to smother this
Bitch, with every knife stain you can come up with
I bring you enough of it
Baby you're in love
Shit

You're never feeling sober
The drugs are taking over
I'm asking where the hell have you been
You can't be this empty
With feelings that make you just want to give up on us
Promise me that everyone around you still breathing
Will know I didn't mean you harm

At first it was the drugs
Then it was the pain
But the pain just didn't seem to go away
So here I lay while I scream and go insane
And you remain in this mean golden cage
You can't sleep at night
You just need a way out
But I need you to fight
Baby please just lay down
And close your eyes and know that I am on your side
It's no surprise
Your soul is mine
And mine is yours
So baby keep your head up
Don't you ever let another motherfucker get you fed up
'Cause I'll blast him with a beretta
If I have to I will get him
That's the truth for real
Baby for you I kill

You're never feeling sober
The drugs are taking over
I'm asking where the hell have you been
You can't be this empty
With feelings that make you just want to give up on us
Promise me that everyone around you still breathing
Will know I didn't mean you harm

You said you weren't afraid
You cannot fool us all
'Cause your a coward not a slave
Now that the drugs remain
I know you're gonna fall
There's too much poison in your veins
This will be the last time I ever reach out with a helping hand
You're senseless
You're risen
Just leaving blood stains on your own skin
