Broken Promises Lyrics

New Order

Oh I dont know why people lie
And I dont know why people die
Every time I see you, you shout at me
`cause of all the things in the world that I cant see
But what I think goes on in this world
For a mother and a father and a boy and a girl
Is that the more you earn, the less you learn
Theres a fire in life where we will burn
And I never could believe it
And I never could be true
For the things that mean so much to me
Dont mean that much to you
And I never could believe
The way you told me I was wrong
If Im right and you are sinful
Then for gods sake I was wrong
Oh, I dont know how I think this way,
And yet you sit there looking at me all day
Theres more to you than I can see
Theres a shadow of another hanging over me
But what I think goes on in this world
For a mother and a father and a boy and a girl
Is that the more you earn, the less you learn
Theres a fire in life where we will burn
And I never could believe it
And I never could be true
For the things that mean so much to me
Dont mean that much to you
And I never could believe
The way you told me I was wrong
If Im right and if youre sinful
Then for gods sake I was wrong
Oh, Id tear you out of heaven
And Id tear you out of hell
And Id see your life when you ? ? ?
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? as well
And Id cry out in my loneliness
While you sleep in your peace
But youll never see my face again
While I need words like these
