It was promises you didn't keep and words you didn't speak
So why, why do i keep waitin', expectin'
Something 'round here to change
I guess it's just my imagination, thinkin' it'll all change someday

'Cause you still think it's my fault that I can't change,
But let the truth be told,
I ain't gonna change for you
'Cause I'm me, and that's what you'll never be
So it was,

Promises you didn't keep and words you didn't speak
So why, why do i keep waitin', expectin'
Something 'round here to change
I guess it's just my imagination, thinkin' it'll all change someday

I'm through with it, I'll be on my own, leave you in pieces,
You can see how it feels being torn apart
So leave me alone, my life is mine to run
You might have been a part of it if you hadn't made

Promises you didn't keep and words you didn't speak
So why, why do i keep waitin', expectin'
Something 'round here to change
I guess it's just my imagination, thinkin' it'll all change someday

So leave me be, I'll be on my own now
If you wanna hear from me you better say you're sorry
and just walk away, walk away
'Cause I don't need you anymore, I've found my life,
And it's mine to keep
You can just back off and watch me take on the world with no one behind me
So just walk away, walk away

It was promises you didn't keep and words you didn't speak
So why, why do i keep waitin', expectin'
Something 'round here to change
I guess it's just my imagination, thinkin' it'll all change someday

If you had only spoken those words and kept those promises. . .
