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      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
