I Promised
I can’t tell you anything, anymore,
These nights get hard, but I have something to look for.
I remember us looking at the sky,
I remember just wanting to drown.
I remember wishing we could fly,
Now I just want to fall down.
You own no part,
I can be anything I want to be.
Tired of your endings, I’ll make a start,
Sadly, it won’t be us, just me.
I only tell you little,
Because you’ll feel better with a lie.
But honestly, I only talk to you,
To make sure you’re still alive.
We can’t just stand here,
We can’t be happy alone.
Sadness is lovely company with fear,
When you’re on your own.
If only I could shake these feelings,
Feelings of despair.
If only I could shake these feelings,
The feelings that mean I care.
