Set It Off ~ Plastic Promises

Just give me a chance
She said, as I packed my things
But I already did
Four times, don't you remember?
I won't blow again
She said, with her fingers crossed
But she forgot about the mirror behind her
I'm done with plastic promises

Please don't tell me that we're fine
I've got too much on my mind
Isn't this too plain to see, maybe
'Cause we've lost too much to gain
We were dancing in the rain
Tell me what am I to do
With a double dose of you?
A dose of you

Her lips are the gun
And her tongue are the bullets
And she could save a life
But she took mine away instead
We gave it our all
So don't call me a quitter
And I swear I've tried too many times before but
I'm done with plastic promises

Please don't tell me that we're fine
I've got too much on my mind
Isn't this too plain to see, maybe
'Cause we've lost too much to gain
We were dancing in the rain
Tell me what am I to do
With a double dose of
With a double dose of you?

Don't try to defy or even make an attempt
My blinders are off and I am running again from you
Am I okay? Am I okay? I know I'll be okay again

Are you ready?

So here we go, I know
You'd kill for everything to stay the same
In vain, we had to go our separate ways
When you proved to me that you would never change
I finally woke up, and exclaimed,
That I'm done with these plastic promises

Please don't tell me that we're fine
('Cause we're not)
I've got too much on my mind
Isn't this too plain to see, maybe.
'Cause we've lost too much to gain
We were dancing in the rain
Tell me what am I to do,
With a double dose of you?
Yeah, oh.
