All's not well upon these shores

Some indecisive battles, some major wars

I've tried to keep y promises

What have you been doing with yours?

A promise is a thing you say

And a promise makes you feel okay

But I look at my promise and I gotta say

I made you and I can break you

Break you, yeah

Things have a way of coming about

First comes knowledge, then comes doubt

You're so close to losing me

And you haven't really figured it out

A promise is a sacred trust

You pray, you promise, you adjust

Have faith in my promise if you must

I made you and I can break you

Break you, yeah

Break you, yeah
