[Verse 1]
When you came into my life, I was lost
And you took that shine to me, at what cost?
You recognized the smell, human pain
Said I'd learn to love the chain
It was
[Chorus]
Shit, shit, shit
Battered
I caved in
My promise
Was clattered
Amazing stars from the dream
I made a promise
And I killed it
Shit, shit, shit
Battered
I live meretricious
You shattered
Amazing stars from my dreamin'
I made a promise
[Verse 2]
When you said I "taste like sleep"
I was dead
When will you step in the room out of your head?
You said that I was bad
That was fine
But whеn you said I could be good I wouldn't have it
Therе's a certain kind of air in the smoke
Must be some amount of truth in the joke
For it to make you laugh, ha ha ha
And teary faces know the craft
[Chorus]
Shit, shit, shit
Battered
I caved in
My promise was clattered
Amazing stars from the drink
I made a promise
And I killed it
Shit, shit, shit
Battered
A whole life meretricious
You shattered
Amazing stars from my dreamin'
I made a promise
And I killed it
Shit, shit, shit
Battered
I caved in
My promise was clattered
Amazing stars from the drink
I made a promise
