Take and break the promise of each day.
Hey, thanks for stopping by. I'm just a guy who likes writing songs, and this is a place for me to put the songs I write for others to critique.

Lyrics
Steal another promise from the sunrise
Try to pay down the debt I owe
Could take it, make it worth the rising
Instead each day I bury a little more
But the grave robber finds it, dig it up, dig it up
Lines close-up in the mirror
Proof of purchase of a misspent youth
Cause I find out in the garden
A row of broken promise where my wild oats took root
I'd like to have 'em back, dig it up, dig it up
You're looking for the highlight reel, give it up, give it up
I'm looking for the time you steal, dig it up, dig it up
The sun'll come up tomorrow
That's the line you fed me yesterday
Now I'm staring at the knots in my pine ceiling
Never made it back to clean the mess I made
Grave digger take me, dig it up, dig it up
