Promises
Skrillex Nero Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

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 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 all 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 all so wasted on myself

They are so wasted on myself





Promises, and they still feel all so wasted on myself

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Skrillex and Nero Remix's "Nero Promises" seem to describe a relationship that is wild, passionate, and intense. The singer cannot deny the powerful effect their partner has on them, and they feel so high that they cannot feel the fire. The partner assures the singer that they will be sweet and never leave their side as long as the singer doesn't break their promises. However, the promises still feel wasted on the singer, perhaps because they are unable to fully reciprocate the intensity of their partner's feelings.


The lyrics suggest a feeling of being overwhelmed by the passion of the relationship, while also feeling a certain level of guilt or insecurity about not being able to live up to their partner's expectations. It's possible that the singer is struggling with their own feelings of inadequacy or is afraid of losing their partner despite their promises. The repetition of the line "promises, and they still feel all so wasted on myself" emphasizes the singer's internal conflict and the sense of disappointment and regret they feel about their own actions.


Overall, the lyrics of "Nero Promises" convey a complex mix of emotions that arise in a relationship that is both exhilarating and fraught with tension and uncertainty.


Line by Line Meaning

You got me so wild
I am deeply and uncontrollably affected by you


How can I ever deny
I cannot pretend that you do not have an effect on me


You got me so high
You have made me feel euphoric


So high I cannot feel the fire
I am so intoxicated with you that I am numb to the danger


And you keep telling me
You repeatedly make me promises


Telling me that you'll be sweet
You reassure me that you will always treat me kindly


And you'll never want to leave my side
You promise to always be there for me


As long as I don't break these
You agree to fulfill these promises on the condition that I do not betray your trust


Promises, and they still feel all so wasted on myself
Despite your promises, I cannot help but feel that I am unworthy of your devotion


Why should I be so surprised
I should have expected to be affected by you


Don't you see it in my eyes
My feelings for you are evident in my gaze


They are so wasted on myself
Your promises are squandered on someone who does not fully believe in their value

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

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
