"Broken Promise" lyrics - PLACEBO

[Michael Stipe]
We'll rise above this
We'll cry about this
As we live and learn
A broken promise
I was not honest
Now I watch as tables turn
And you're singing

[Chorus: Brian Molko and Michael Stipe]
I'll wait my turn
To tear inside you
Watch you burn
And I'll wait my turn
I'll wait my turn

[Brian Molko]
I'll cry about this
And hide my cuckold eyes
As you come off all concerned
And I'll find no solace
In your poor apology
In your regret, that sounds absurd
And keep singing

[Chorus: Brian Molko and Michael Stipe]
I'll wait my turn
To tear inside you
Watch you burn
And I'll wait my turn
To terrorize you
Watch you burn
I'll wait my turn
I'll wait my turn

[Michael Stipe]
And this is a promise
Promise is a promise
Promise is a promise
Promise is a promise

[Chorus: Brian Molko]
And I'll wait my turn
To tear inside you
Watch you burn
I'll wait my turn
I'll wait my turn

[Michael Stipe]
Promise is a promise
Promise is a promise
Promise is a promise

[Brian Molko]
A broken promise
You were not honest
I'll bide my time
I'll wait my turn
