Promise me
I opened my heart to you
 And trusted you with secrets 
 I thought you were only
 Forever and true
 
 Then everything changed
 It started slipping away
 My dream and fantasy shattered like glass
 
 You promised me to catch me if I fall
 But you weren't there
 Why weren't you there at all?
 
 You took my soul in your hands
 Shaking it until it was dim
 Controling and shaping me to your plans
 I was nothing but limp
 
 I wanted to scream at you to stop. 
 But I wouldn't
 I wanted to hide from you scared
 But I couldn't
 
 Nothing was real anymore
 You slammed my face in the door
 Leaving behind in the dark
 Done with me and the fights
 You said I wasn't enough
 But I gave you everything
 
 Why didn't you see? 
 How I felt and trusted you?
 
 Promise me you'll think in the night 
 Before you close your eyes
 Everything that happened to us
 Promise me that "I love you" wasn't a lie
 Wasn't just simple words
 
 Because now I'm nothing but a face
 Empty and numb
 Trying to hide all the tears I cry
