Promise

Well, you know that I want your loving
 But my logic tells me that it ain't never gonna happen
 And then my defenses say I didn't want it anyway
 But you know sometimes I'm a liar
 Could you ever want me to love you?
 Could you ever want me to care?
 Disregard my nervousness
 Please ignore my vacant stares
 Just what I've been through
 Is nothing like where I'm going to
 Give me some sign to pursue a promise
 And you're unhappy
 And this is only a guess
 Do you know what it's like to hate
 When it's way down deep inside?
 Oh, God, I hate what's been done to my life
 I could rule the pain, I could rule the night
 Or would it ruin my salvation?
 Ruin my mind, rules your pains, rulers of the night
 Ruin your salvation, ruin your mind
