Broken Promises - Mortal Sin

I’m satisfied that you lied

The people want you crucified

Won’t you tell the truth?

On the side I’m terrified

Of all the rules that you’ve implied

Won’t you tell the truth?

No need to make broken promises

No need to tell those lies

No need to make broken promises

You can’t ignore the deaths of war

They’re picking bodies off the floor

Won’t you call a truce?

And furthermore you’ve closed the door

On all the troops that you withdraw

Won’t you call a truce?

No need to make broken promises

No need to tell these lies

No need to make broken promises

I know you can’t keep making these promises

I know you can’t keep telling those lies

I know you’re just the American president

It’s not your son who regretfully dies

Why can’t you see what you need to see

Why can’t you be what we need you to be

I know you can’t keep making these promises

I know you can’t keep telling those lies

No need to make broken promises («No need! No Need!»)

No need to tell these lies («No Lies! No Lies!»)

No need to make broken promises («No need! No Need!»)

No need to tell those — tell those lies!
