New Order - Broken Promises lyrics

And I don't know why people die

Every time you see me you shout at me

'Cause of all the things in the world that I can't see

But what I think goes on in this world

For a mother and a father and a boy and a girl

Is that the more you earn, the less you learn

There's a fire in life where we will burn

And I never could believe it

And it never could be true

For the things that mean so much to me

Don't mean so much to you

And I never could believe

The way you told me I was wrong

If I'm right and you are sinful

Then for God's sake I was wrong

Oh, I don't know how I think this way,

And yet you sit there looking at me all day

There's more to you than I can see

There's a shadow of another hanging over me

But what I think goes on in this world

For a mother and a father and a boy and a girl

Is that the more you earn, the less you learn

There's a fire in life where we will burn

And I never could believe it

And I never could be true

For the things that mean so much to me

Don't mean so much to you

And I never could believe

The way you told me I was wrong

If I'm right and if you're sinful

Then for God's sake I was wrong

Oh, I'd tear you out of heaven

And I'd tear you out of hell

And I'd see your life with me was because

One lies there as well

And I'd cry out in my loneliness

While you sleep in your fears

But you'll never see my face again

While I need words like these
