Lyrics
I'm out here everyday breakin' haerts along the way
I causet ears to fall and some to lose it all
This whole world would be
Better off without me
Well, I'm the saddest words you've spoken
I'm a promise broken
I'm the ballgame that you missed
I'm the calls that don't come in
I'm every poor excuse you use to cover up the truth
I tell the people that you love
That they dont matter quite enough
There's no stoppin' me once I'm in motion
I'm a promise broken
Disappointment, disillusion
Despair, confusion
I've seen it all in their eyes
Dont promise you will if you wont
Dont say you do if you dont
Its alright to say you'll try
Well, I get pushed aside when you move on with your life
But I'll stand the test of time in your heart and in your mind
You'll think about me now and then
Wonder how your life might've been
But I will leave you never knowin'
Well, I'm a promise broken
I'm a promise broken
