We built sandcastles
that washed away
I made you cry
when I walked away
And although I promised
that I couldn't stay baby
Every promise
don't work out that way oh babe
Every promise
don't work out that way
Dishes smashed on my counter
from our last encounter
Pictures snatched out the frame
Bitch I scratched out
your name and your face
What is it about you that
I can't erase baby
When every promise
don't work out that way no no babe
When every promise
don't work out that way
And your heart is broken
cause I walked away
Show me your scars
and I won't walk away
And I know I promised that
I couldn't stay baby
Every promise
don't work out that way
no no no no no
Every promise
don't work out that way
