You say I always put my skin on the wrong way
But I'm still just not convinced there's another side
Every front I put up meets the same fate
All the things that I do
They never feel right
So we lay down all our cards on the table
And we know and we know that it always comes short, one or two
Put the stones down slow
We always break but we never break through
No never break through
Never had no one teach me how to learn
All the simple things we keep getting wrong
You're no dancer and I'm driving blind
Never had no one I knew how to love
Breaking all the links, trying hard enough
Promises we wrote down, you and I
In cold blood
In cold blood
Promises we made
In cold blood
You say I always put my skin on the wrong way
And me I'm never gonna let go of the little things
We don't change the game
And keep playing by the same old rules
The same old rules
Never had no one teach me how to learn
All the simple things we keep getting wrong
You're no dancer and I'm driving blind
Never had no one I knew how to love
Breaking all the links, trying hard enough
Promises we wrote down, you and I
In cold blood
In cold blood
Promises we
In cold blood
Promises we made
Overblown, just every little thing we try
And promises run dry
We're just lonely baby, why never say die?
Promises we wrote down, you and I
In cold blood
In cold blood
Promises we
In cold blood
Promises we made
In cold blood
