about

Good Intentions tells the story of disappointment. It’s dedicated to people who talk the talk, but never walk the walk.

lyrics

Good Intentions

Regret
Things left unsaid
Promises never kept
Lying awake on what feels like a death bed
Draining me, deceiving me, misleading me
Hanging on by a thread

I don’t want to hear about your good intentions
All I want to see is a man of action
I don’t want to hear about your good intentions
You won’t live up to the expectation

I just need you to be good to me, good to me,
Good to me, good to me (x2)

Have it your way
Say what I want to hear
White lies, you never knew how to compromise
Swear you’ll change, light fires you can’t tame
You promise the moon and never follow through
Do words mean anything to you

I don’t want to hear about your good intentions
All I want to see is a man of action
I don’t want to hear about your good intentions
You won’t live up to the expectation

I just need you to be good to me, good to me,
Good to me, good to me (x4)

Will it always be this way, he said
You will never change
Does it have to be this way, he said
You won’t take the blame

I don’t want to hear about your good intentions
All I want to see is a man of action
I don’t want to hear about your good intentions
You won’t live up to the expectation

A nostalgic voice amidst minimalist grooves; The Sophistocrats create a thoughtful, expansive tone. Their music promotes healthy relationships through the communication of personal boundaries and expectations. With distilled melodic hooks and open-book lyricism, they depict a poignant narration to today’s definition of romantic love, self-love and trust. ... more
