Promise
Tell me why you’ve become so damned unconsenting
The way you make me feel is so condescending
So help me!
Cross my heart and hope to die
You swore on your God
You never told a lie
So commit yourself to me
Under hand and seal
Undertake this sacred oath
Immolate this deal
On your word of honor
Consummate this pact
Bind yourself with me
Finalise this act
Promise me...promises...promising...
Promise me the world
Promise me...promises...promising...
Promise me the world
Make vows you won’t keep
I can’t trust in your word
If you think you can fool me
Then you must be absurd
You say you’ve been faithful
On this you swear
There’s nothing to see
Cause nothing’s there
Do you really expect me to give credence in this deception
When I know your truth is nothing but perversion
You think you can lie to me
And get away with it all
You think that I’m a jerk
Can’t believe your gall
I should have always known
It would never last
I’ll never forget
Lies form the past
Promise me...promises...promising...
Promise me the world
Promise me...promises...promising...
Promise me the world
Promise me...promises...promising...
Promise me the world
Promise me...promises...promising...
Promise me the world
Promise me...promises...promising...

Promise me the world
The way you make me feel is so condescending
Cross my heart and hope to die
You swore on your God
You never told a lie
Under hand and seal
Undertake this sacred oath
Immolate this deal
On your word of honor
Consummate this pact
Bind yourself with me
Finalise this act
Promise me the world

Massacre's From Beyond is a death metal classic. Sadly, along with being death metal pioneers, they also released the dreaded 1996 album... Promise. Very bad vocals, bad guitars... seriously, this is ONE death metal album that you CAN call "simply just noise". Complete with bad and kind of surreal vocals about relationships. It wasn't even Kam Lee singing, it was some other guy (at least so he claims, probably too scared to admit he did sing in it, who knows?)
