Promises have always been something I'm good at keeping
Because I like their sanctity of meaning
But there's one promise I couldn't hold true
I said I would always be here for you
I didn't realize it would turn out this way
I didn't know that all this **** would go down and the hurt would stay
I lasted a long time I swear.
I waited and waited endured and cared
But I couldn't do it anymore
Deleted your number, changed the lock on the door.
You were the one promise I couldn't keep
Something that feels like defeat
But when I really look at it I think it's a win
Because now without you I can begin again.
