POP ETC - Promises Lyrics






This spirit is holding us down
We shit our shoulders are in deep
Pulling us to the light
Toasted our backs in the sun
And I waited for the next call
We got all out ears pressed against the wall

But now our days are set straight
We're seeing it all eye to eye
The balance is still chasing after
Just hanging on as you walk by

And they say it's only natural
They say we're coming along just fine
But I can't help thinking we grew up too fast
And I know, I know, I know this won't last
A second longer than it has

Children you will, be cared for at once
And wanted our arms like promises plucked from above

This world is only getting smaller
The choices aren't ours to be made
And I to my days
I feel like wasting my days

And I can't see what's coming on
And I can't say it will all be fine
No I can't help thinking we grew up too fast
No I can't help thinking we grew up too fast
And I know, I know, I know this won't last
A second longer than it has

  8. K.... ....

    Thx Eskel

  9. s.... ....

    Similar in style to The Stroke's two most recent albums, Angles and Comedown Machine, especially Comedown Machine. More of a surf vibe to it though. Like it!

  16. J.... C....

    Groovy and enjoyable! Yay! :)

  17. s.... ....

    it's a compliment to say so, however. modest mouse are talented guys from the 90's. this band sounds more like the black keys mixed with the strokes, but still have their own unique taste.

    mixture of all bands i like *____*

  18. G.... n....

    Loved this song 2 years ago, and still love it now.

  19. T.... ....

    Great song

  20. b.... ....

    I do hear a little bit of Modest Mouse in their music. But who cares? Most bands are inspired by other bands in some way. Maybe they liked Modest Mouse's style and decided to mix it with their own style to make this. And my ears are telling me there is absolutely nothing wrong with that.

  21. A.... T....

    this song only comes on random, and always at the right time.

  22. x.... ....

    Holy shit this is good.

  23. M.... S....

    hahaha yea!

  24. S.... V....

    big one, great rhythm¡¡

  25. p.... ....

    it sounds just like the intro to two weeks by grizzly bear!!

  26. S.... A....

    Modest Mouse and The Morning Benders are both great.

  27. R.... ....

    LOVE IT! (oprah style)

  28. c.... c....

    It kind of has a sort of Grizzly Bear sound. At least in the verse.

  29. l.... ....

    @Bam2106 Hey, hey, hey, buddy. Modest Mouse is pretty fucking amazing!

    ...but so is this band, so...My statement is invalid.

  30. s.... ....

    I hear a major E.L.O. Influence in this song. Either way, it's still fantastic.

  31. Z.... E....
