Promise after promise
Weight onto weight
The boat of hope
is bound to break
Bonds are broken
Trust denied
The raft of life
is coming untied
Water and lies
are seeping in
Doubt and fear
reside within
Sturdy ground
is falling apart
How things have changed
Since the start
Faith no longer
worth it all
Love becoming
understandable
Now the floor
is falling through
Time for me to say adieu
Let's float around in nothingness
and teach ourselves to swim.
