Broken Promise

[Verse 1: 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 & Michael Stipe, Brian Molko] I'll wait my turn To tear inside you Watch you burn And I'll wait my turn I'll wait my turn [Verse 2: 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 & Michael Stipe, Brian Molko] 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 [Interlude: Michael Stipe] And this is a promise Promise is a promise Promise is a promise Promise is a promise [Chorus: Brian Molko, Michael Stipe] And I'll wait my turn (Promise is a promise) To tear inside you (Promise is a promise, promise, promise, promise, promise) Watch you burn (Promise is a promise) I'll wait my turn (Promise is a promise, promise is a promise) I'll wait my turn (Promise is a promise, promise is a promise) (Promise is a promise, promise is a promise) (Promise is a promise, promise is a promise) [Outro: Brian Molko] A broken promise You were not honest I'll bide my time I'll wait my turn
