Promises
Plan B/Nero Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
How can I ever deny
You got me so high
So high I cannot feel the fire
And you keep telling 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 oh so wasted on myself
Promises, and they still feel oh so wasted on myself
Promises, and they still feel oh so wasted on myself
Promises, and they still feel oh so wasted on myself
You got me so wild
Why should I be so surprised?
You got me so high
Don't you see it in my eyes?
And you keep telling 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 oh so wasted on myself
Promises, and they still feel oh so wasted on myself
Promises, and they still feel oh so wasted on myself
Promises, and they still feel oh so wasted on myself
They are so wasted on myself
They are so wasted on myself
They are so wasted on myself
They are so wasted on myself
They are so wasted on myself
They are so wasted on myself
They are so wasted on myself
They are so wasted on myself
Promises, and they still feel oh so wasted on myself
Promises, and they still feel oh so wasted on myself
Promises, and they still feel oh so wasted on myself
Promises, and they still feel oh so wasted on myself
The lyrics to Plan B/Nero's song Promises seem to be about being in a relationship where one is completely consumed by their partner's love and attention. The singer expresses their feelings of being wild and high, and unable to resist their partner's advances. The partner promises to always be sweet and never leave their side, as long as the singer doesn't break any promises. However, the repeated line "promises, and they still feel oh so wasted on myself" suggests that the singer is not able to fully embrace the promises made by their partner, and that they feel disconnected from the relationship.
The use of "wild" and "high" in the first verse suggests a sense of recklessness and danger, while the line "so high I cannot feel the fire" implies a lack of awareness or concern for the consequences of the singer's actions. This is further emphasized by the repetition of the line "promises, and they still feel oh so wasted on myself," which suggests a sense of regret or a feeling that the promises made by the partner are not worth the singer's time.
Overall, the lyrics to "Promises" suggest a complex and conflicted relationship, where one partner is completely consumed by their feelings for the other, yet may not fully believe in the promises made by their partner. The repeated refrain suggests a sense of disappointment or regret, as the singer realizes that they cannot fully trust their partner or rely on their promises.

No one's Dubstep drops hit quite like Nero's, man. Since they have that previous experience with Drum & Bass, they know how to harness complex drum beats, epic trance sounds, and end it with a fat drop. I LOVE NERO.
