Lyrics for Junkie's Promise
A hundred dollars used to be more than enough And now a hundred times a day and still it's not enough People always tell me you get what you deserve All I know is all and all is all I've heard I heard you say: "you know I hate myself But I love everybody else" And did you say: "I can't escape myself" And then you did and now there's no one else To blame you know that I know yeah that times are rough I'd like to help you out but things are rather tough People always tell me that you've got to lend a helping hand Nothing in return is all I expect from you my friend I heard you say: "you know I hate myself But I love everybody else" And did you say: "I can't escape myself" And then you did and now there's no one else I heard you say: "you know I hate myself But I love everybody else" And did you say: "I can't escape myself" And then you do and now there's no one else
