lyrics

Absence makes me bearable
I'm only loved from afar
The gravity of the situation
The pull of the night

I'm a magnet for trouble
Better pick up the pace
I've got an urge to run
I've got an urge to

Break that promise
That keeps us honest
When the days all seem the same
Break that promise
That keeps us honest
When the days all seem the same

I speak without thinking
Drunk on oxygen
Forever misquoted
You turn the screw

As it's one time too many
One too many times
The thrill of the crime
The thrill of the

Break that promise
That keeps us honest
When the days all seem the same
Break that promise
That keeps us honest
When the days all seem the same

At my own risk
Quote me out of context
Better the devil you know
That wins your heart and your soul
At my own risk
Quote me out of context
Better the devil you know
That wins your heart and your soul

The truth you have to tell me
It sticks in your throat
It won't leave your lungs
It won't leave your lungs

I'm a cynic
Desperate to believe
You've taken me unaware
Now the gloves are off
The gloves are

Break that promise
That keeps us honest
When the days all seem the same
Break that promise
That keeps us honest
When the days all seem the same

At my own risk
Quote me out of context
Better the devil you know
That wins your heart and your soul
At my own risk
Quote me out of context
Better the devil you know
That wins your heart and your soul
