Promises,

Empty promises,

Oh! How I love to make some,

Watch the glow on their faces,

And the upturn of their unused smiles,

And when all that happens,

I disappear from the equation,

Leaving them confused, morose.

I'm a sadistic you say?

But I'm learning from the best,

Watching you all do the same to

Someone else, so why would it hurt?

Why would you call me the bad guy?

Promises,

Empty promises,

So easy to make,

So easy to break,

Oh! I know you like them,

After all, we're only human.
