You got me so wild
How can I ever deny?
You got me so high
So high I cannot feel the fire
And you keep tellin' me
Telling me that you'll be sweet
And you'll never want to leave my side
As long as I don't break these
Promises, and they still feel all so wasted on myself
Promises, and they still feel all so wasted on myself
Promises, and they still feel all so wasted on myself
Promises, and they still feel all so wasted on myself
And they still feel all so wasted on myself
And they still feel all so wasted on myself
You got me so wild
How can I ever deny?
You got me so high
So high I cannot feel the fire
And you keep tellin' me
Telling me that you'll be sweet
And you'll never want to leave my side
As long as I don't break these
Promises, and they still feel all so wasted on myself
Promises, and they still feel all so wasted on myself
Promises, and they still feel all so wasted on myself
Promises, and they still feel all so wasted on myself
And they still feel all so wasted on myself
And they still feel all so wasted on myself
You got me so wild
How can I ever deny?
You got me so high
So high I cannot feel the fire
And you keep tellin' me
Telling me that you'll be sweet
And you'll never want to leave my side
As long as I don't break these
Promises, and they still feel all so wasted on myself
Promises, and they still feel all so wasted on myself
Promises, and they still feel all so wasted on myself
Promises, and they still feel all so wasted on myself
About This Song
"Promises" is a haunting dubstep ballad that explores the intoxicating yet destructive nature of a relationship built on empty assurances and unfulfilled commitments. The song captures the emotional turmoil of being caught between euphoric highs ("so high I cannot feel the fire") and the crushing realization that romantic promises feel "wasted," suggesting a cycle of hope and disappointment. Nero's signature blend of melodic dubstep with cinematic orchestration creates a dramatic soundscape that mirrors the song's emotional intensity, featuring soaring synths that build to crushing bass drops. The track's power lies in its ability to transform personal vulnerability into an anthemic electronic experience, making it a standout piece that helped define the melodic dubstep movement of the early 2010s. The repetitive nature of the chorus emphasizes the cyclical pattern of broken promises, while the contrast between gentle verses and explosive drops reflects the relationship's volatile dynamics.
