THERES A BIBLE ON THE DRESSER, AND A SIGN HUNG ON THE DOOR
AND A WOMAN IN MY ARMS WHO SHOULDN?T BE
I?M TO THE POINT OF NO RETURNING, AND I?VE BEEN HERE BEFORE
THIS CHEATIN LIFE IS NOTHING NEW TO ME
THERE?S SOMEONE TO BE CONSIDERED, SO I CALLED HER ON THE PHONE
AND SAY THE JOB IS TAKING LONGER THAN I PLANNED
I DON?T HAVE THE HEART TO TELL HER, THAT A STRANGERS TURN ME ON
AND I?M HEADED FOR THE BROKEN PROMISE LAND
TONIGHT I?M CROSSING OVER, AND I?LL REACH THE CHEATIN SIDE
AND I?LL HATE MYSELF FOR COMING HERE AGAIN
WHERE THE STREETS ARE PAVED WITH MISERY, AND LIVES ARE BUILT ON LIES
THE PLACE THEY CALL THE BROKEN PROMISE LAND
FOUND A NOTE LEFT ON THE DRESSER, AND A KEY LEFT IN THE DOOR
AND ON THE FLOOR I FOUND HER GOLDEN WEDDING BAND
GUESS SHE FINALLY HAD TO TELL ME, SHE?S NOT WAITING ANYMORE
AND SHE?S HEADED FOR THE BROKEN PROMISE LAND
TONIGHT SHE?S CROSSING OVER, AND SHE?LL REACH THE CHEATIN SIDE
AND I?LL HATE MYSELF FOR GIVING HERE CHANCE
WHERE THE STREETS ARE PAVED WITH MISERY, AND LIVES ARE BUILT ON LIES
THE PLACE THEY CALL THE BROKEN PROMISE LAND
