I'll take my chances,
so just take back your promise.
Because,
as soon as your interest advances,
you won't remember the time you said you were
harmless.

You said "Fall,
I'll catch you.
I was so small
before I met you.

Every night, I want you to call
so by the morning I won't forget you."

I told you I was afraid,
I said I was not sure.
Because,
every time I have been betrayed,
I think I have decayed a little more.

I said, "I've heard of forever,
is that a myth, or just a lie?"
He goes, "Take my hand, we'll can go wherever,
and I'll remind you everyday how our love will never die."

He took my hand,
and said, "Close your eyes.
Where we stand, is where we shall rise."

For some reason,
I believed you.
But now I am in a darker season,
one I'm still trying to weave through.
I just want to identify this treason,
even though I'll probably forget
just as quick as the naive
do.

I gave you my word,
You lent me your heart.
I thought you were my angel,
but instead,
you were the raven from the start.

So after I gave it my all,
I can only regret you.
Did you just want to see me crawl?
Well, you're a fool

if you think I'd let you.
