lirik lagu promises – vision video

[intro]
breath held out in offering
to pay recompense for transgression

[verse]
i’m sorry to tell you that the time is nigh
i didn’t think to tell you twice
that we have promises to keep
in spilling blood for those who weep
crocodile tears and foreign oil
the taking’s too good to let spoil
and all the while we soundly sleep
as we have promises to keep
[chorus]
sleep well tonight, lay your body down into the pyre
dream so sweetly as the flames grow to the sky
sleep well tonight, lay your body down into the pyre
dream so sweetly as the flames grow to the sky

[verse]
and poisoned air wrought wretched lung
to calloused heart and gavels wrung
on marble stones over our graves
for dividends and “jesus saves”
cold shoulders turning in warm sheets
to all the screaming in the streets
and all the while we soundly sleep
as we have promises to keep

[chorus]
sleep well tonight, lay your body down into the pyre
dream so sweetly as the flames grow to the sky
sleep well tonight, lay your body down into the pyre
dream so sweetly as the flames grow to the sky

[bridge]
anoint me in your truth
i’ll disavow my youth
anoint me in your truth
i’ll disavow my youth
[chorus]
sleep well tonight, lay your body down into the pyre
dream so sweetly as the flames grow to the sky
sleep well tonight, lay your body down into the pyre
dream so sweetly as the flames grow to the sky
