[Verse 1]
There's a place where words mean nothing or much less
Such a disgrace, we got to get out of this mess

[Pre-Chorus]
Coming in under the cover of darkness
How high shall we build this wall?
I could've said more but it would've seemed heartless
How hard did I slam that door?

[Chorus]
I swore I'd never walk away
Until I saw this day
It didn't turn out the way we planned
Now I'm living in
Broken promise land
Broken promise land

[Verse 2]
There's a town I know has a strange resemblance to Jericho
Even though seven horns are getting ready to blow

[Pre-Chorus]
Coming in under the cover of darkness
How high shall we build this wall?
I could've said more but it would've seemed heartless
How tight shall we close that door?
[Chorus]
They only claimed to be redeemed
They take that name and then blaspheme
It didn't turn out the way we planned
Now I'm living in
Broken promise land
Broken promise land

[Verse 3]
There's a place where infidels and showgirls meet
Such a disgrace, wedding bells crumble in the street

[Pre-Chorus]
Coming in under the cover of darkness
How high shall we build this wall?
I could've said more but it would've seemed heartless
How tight shall we shut that door?

[Chorus]
In the name of the Father and the Son
In the name of gasoline and a gun
It didn't turn out the way we planned
Now I'm living in
Broken promise land
Broken promise land
