pointless promises

Bind my hands with promises  
we're meant to break  
because you always find me  
when I'm wrecked and weak  
you always find me  
when I don't have the strength  
to stay away from your lupine smile  
that offers more than you have  
to give  
 
And I'm on my knees again  
begging you to stay  
but you never do  
 
You never stay for longer  
than it takes to tease me from my shell  
and leave me begging for more  
than bitter kisses and a smile  
that says you'll be back  
when I'm ready to break myself open again  
 
And like the pathetic  
little bitch I am  
you know I'll wait for you  
however long between  
these relapases in our judgement  
 
You bind my hands with promises  
you always meant to break  
 
I bind myself with promises  
I never meant to keep  
 
We bind ourselves in love  
that means nothing at all
