[Verse 1]

I give him my heart, but he just turns away

There’s nothing I can do to change his ways

If I give him time, maybe he’ll come around

So I do my best, but he won’t let himself be found

[Pre-Chorus]

(So how do I tell her?)

He says “I want to promise you the world, but I’m stuck in my own mind”

I know him so well

He doesn’t feel deserving of the love he can’t show himself

[Chorus]

So why do I give him my heart, let him tear me apart?

Inside out, I’m turned upside down

And I tell myself I won’t go back again…

But he hurts me the best

[Verse 2]

Can’t be the man I want to be

Full of false hopes and false dreams

Lost in the memory

Honey, why can’t I see (Honey, why can’t you see)

I’m sorry I can’t give you the world

But my hope is left for wanting

And I feel like I’m lost and I’m gone

Honey, I can’t go on… (Honey, I can't go on...)

[Pre-Chorus]

When she says “baby, I love you, I can’t let you go” ("baby, I love you, I can't let you go)

Well, I ran as far as I could go,

Now I’m too far from home…

[Chorus]

So why do I give you my heart, let you tear me apart (Give me your heart, let me tear you apart)

(It’s started all over again)

Inside out, I’m turned upside down

And I tell myself I won’t go back again…

(This is my burden to bare)

But he hurts me the best

Oh, you hurt the best…

[Bridge]

You make this look easy

You’re calling me love (I tore out your heart)

But it’s only False Promises (But I’m full of False Promises)

(I put up my guard)

I hate how he waits, till I’m pulling away (Honey, I’m sorry I can’t change what I’ve done)

And then he pulls me right back again

And then I fall into his bed again

[Chorus]

So I give him my heart

And hope he doesn’t tear me apart…

(I’ll break you once again)

Now I’m inside out, I’m upside down

And I tell myself I won’t go back again (Tear you from within)

But he’s making False Promises

(I’m sorry can’t change)

False Promises

(I’ll never change, I’ll never change)

I opened my heart, and he tore it apart

Now I’m back at the start

(You can’t trust a thing that I’ll say)

I wanted to stay, you pushed me away

I guess you proved me wrong (I’m gonna break your heart…)

[Outro]

False Promises…

(I’m giving you False Promises)

False Promises
