Listening Pool - Promised the World So now we're all thrown on the streets of life like a trampoline... like a movie scene But now, out in the real world, someone's bound to lose. Are we free to choose? You've got to be cruel to be kind... I think I'm losing my mind Chorus: I promised the world, whatever it's worth (repeat) And when the night falls, paradise calls (repeat) So now we're down under the sea of life like a submarine... on a silver screen When light shines in the people's eyes, I can feel the beat taking all the heat You've got to be a fool to be blind... don't go wasting my time (Chorus)
