Promises are simple
But people are not
I tried to understand it
And untie the knot
I entered with a big smile
But I left with a blues
All my friends are gone now
And I've nothing more to lose
Do I really need to figure out what
What precious I once have lost
Maybe it's simply all my damn fault
That no one called
Oh, you become what you've done
And I keep writing the same old song
Again and again and again
People talk dirty when they are
I don't even know where to start
Challenges are easy
But losing is not
Maybe I'm too old now
To get another shot
They say I'm too cheesy
They say I'm too dull
If they would just know
That I was protecting my last call
Oh, you become what you've done
And I keep writing the same old song
Again and again and again
People talk dirty when they are
I don't even know where to start
Promises are simple
Promises are simple
But people are not
Dreaming is so easy
Standing alone is not
I came a long way
I fell for wrong friends
Timing doesn't like me
'Cause I always miss my chance
Oh, you become what you've done
And I keep writing the same old song
Again and again and again
People talk dirty when they are
I don't even know where to start
Promises are simple
Promises are simple
