Eve 6: Promise

sleeping through the evening
singing dreams inside my head
i'm heading out
i've got some ends who say they care
and they just might
run away with you
if things don't go as planned
plannin' big could be a gamble
i've already rolled the dice

i spit and stutter stuff and clutter
worries in my worried corner
maladjusted
just untrusted
rusted
sometimes brilliant busted thoughts
think i'll stay for a while
i'm intrigued and i'm
red as a newborn white as a corpse

i promise not to try not to fuck with your mind
i promise not to mind if you go your way and i go mine
i promise not to lie if i'm looking you straight in the eye
i promise not to lie and not to let you down

i am elated
i am all smiled and dated
in my man bites dog down
with a spanish name
i am my own bone
i am two toned
red as a newborn white as a corpse

i promise not to try not to fuck with your mind
i promise not to mind if you go your way and i go mine
i promise not to lie if im looking you straight in the eye
i promise not to try not to let you down girl let me down
slow

why do you gotta keep the fan on high when its cold outside?
just wanna let you know i'm still a fan, get it
everybody wants charm in a smile and a promise

i promise not to try

i promise not to try not to fuck with your mind
i promise not to mind if you go your way and i go mine
i promise not to lie if im looking you straight in the eye
i promise not to try not to not to leave
(promise not to try)
not to leave
(promise not to try)
not to not to leave-yay
(promise not to try)
i won't leave
i won't leave

Sheryl Crow: Strong Enough

God, I feel like hell tonight
Tears of rage I cannot fight
I'd be the last to help you understand
Are you strong enough to be my man?

Nothing's true and nothing's right
So let me be alone tonight
Cause you can't change the way I am
Are you strong enough to be my man?

Lie to me
I promise I'll believe
Lie to me
But please don't leave
I have a face I cannot show
I make the rules up as I go
It's try and love me if you can
Are you strong enough to be my man?

When I've shown you that I just don't care
When I'm throwing punches in the air
When I'm broken down and I can't stand
Will you be MAN ENOUGH to be my man?

Lie to me
I promise I'll believe
Lie to me
But please don't leave
