Set It Off - Plastic Promises lyrics
[Set It Off - Plastic Promises lyrics]
Just give me a chance
She said as I packed my things
But, I already did four times
Don't you remember?
I won't blow it again, she said
With her fingers crossed
But she forgot about the mirror behind her
I'm done with plastic promises
Please don't tell me that we're fine
I got too much on my mind
Isn't this too plain to see? Maybe
Cause we've lost too much to gain
We were dancing in the rain
Tell me what am I to do
With a double dose of you? A dose of you
Her lips are the gun and
Her tongue are the bullets
She could save a life
But she took mine away instead
And we gave it our all, so
Don't call me a quitter, no
And I've swear I've tried too
Many times before but
I'm done with plastic promises
Please don't tell me that we're fine
I got too much on my mind
Isn't this too plain to see? Maybe
Cause we've lost too much to gain
We were dancing in the rain
Tell me what am I to do
With a double dose of-
With a double dose of you
Don't try to defy or even make an attempt
My blinders are off and I
Am running again from you
Am I okay? Am I okay? I
Know I'll be okay again are you ready?
So here we go, I know
You'd kill for everything to stay the same
In vain, we had to go our separate ways
When you proved to me that
You would never change
I finally woke up and exclaimed
That I'm done with these plastic promises
Please don't tell me that we're fine
(We're not) i got too much on my mind
Isn't this too plain to see? Maybe, yeah
Cause we've lost too much to gain
We were dancing in the rain
Tell me what am I to do
With a double dose of-
With a double dose of you?
She said as I packed my things
But, I already did four times
Don't you remember?
I won't blow it again, she said
With her fingers crossed
But she forgot about the mirror behind her
I'm done with plastic promises
Please don't tell me that we're fine
I got too much on my mind
Isn't this too plain to see? Maybe
Cause we've lost too much to gain
We were dancing in the rain
Tell me what am I to do
With a double dose of you? A dose of you
Her lips are the gun and
Her tongue are the bullets
She could save a life
But she took mine away instead
And we gave it our all, so
Don't call me a quitter, no
And I've swear I've tried too
Many times before but
I'm done with plastic promises
Please don't tell me that we're fine
I got too much on my mind
Isn't this too plain to see? Maybe
Cause we've lost too much to gain
We were dancing in the rain
Tell me what am I to do
With a double dose of-
With a double dose of you
Don't try to defy or even make an attempt
My blinders are off and I
Am running again from you
Am I okay? Am I okay? I
Know I'll be okay again are you ready?
So here we go, I know
You'd kill for everything to stay the same
In vain, we had to go our separate ways

Cause we've lost too much to gain

With a double dose of-
With a double dose of you?
