'92 Lyrics - A Deathbed Promise

Verse 1 

Hold my hand 

I need to take another breath 

My words were ripped from my throat 

And driven through my chest 

They don't understand 

I recall the burning of my lungs 

From breathing in the violent fumes 

Jumping off their tongues 

Breathe it in 

Chorus: 

For tonight 

I'm going to pick myself back up 

Brush it off and tell them of 

All that they've undone 

And for tonight 

I'll make them clean this up 

I'll brush it off 

I'll brush it off 

Verse 2: 

They're not listening 

They'll put up a fight and shut me out 

They do this over and over again 

They do this over and over again 

I'm coming out of my skin 

This tension wearing through the seams 

I can't make out where it belongs 

Or exactly what this means 

Breathe it in 

Chorus: 

For tonight 

I'm going to pick myself back up 

Brush it off and tell them of 

All that they've undone 

And for tonight 

I'll make them clean this up 

I'll brush it off 

I'll brush it off 

Bridge: 

So hold my hand 

They don't understand 

They're not listening 

They're never listening 

No, they're not listening 

They never listen 

Chorus: 

For tonight 

I'm going to pick myself back up 

Brush it off and tell them of 

All that they've undone 

And for tonight 

I'll make them clean this up 

I'll brush it off 

I'll brush it off 

All that they've undone
