MUNA - Promise lyrics

[Verse 1] I told a lot of lies Called it a compromise To keep you in your seat I was so afraid to lose But the things that I did to you You would never do to me [Chorus] Why do I Why do I do it You wanna Hold my hand I make a fist A false promise And even if you said you would forgive me I don’t know if I could ever say I’m sorry [Post-Chorus] I don’t know if I— (You said you would) I don’t know if I can (You said you would) [Verse 2] So I look at you now Bruised and broken down By what you thought was love You tell me you want to stay & you wanna watch me change But I’m scared so I tell you to f** off

[Chorus] Why do I Why do I do it You wanna Hold my hand I make a fist A false promise And even if you said you would forgive me I don’t know if I could ever say I’m sorry [Post-Chorus] I don’t know if I— (You said you would) I don’t know if I can (You said you would) [Bridge] Mean hearted girls would k** their loves to hurt themselves They can’t believe they could deserve anything else And even if you said you know that I’m sorry I don’t know if I could ever forgive me [Post-Chorus] I don’t know if I— (You said you would) I don’t know if I can (You said you would)
