Another Empty Promise
Another dead-end bound conversation
We seem to be having a lot of these as of late
Me begging for more than you are willing to give
You unable to understand why I am so upset
You make another one of
your fantastic promises
One I know you'll never
remember to keep
Looking into your eyes
a familiar line is thought of
"...yet how can you break
such a broken promise?"
I am continuously running into a brick wall
You match love and pain with rage and undeserved guilt
trips
I fell you want out but there are still shadows of
doubt
Because lately I don't know if I even know you anymore
I watch you through the
tears I try to hide
As we both sit in the
cold, dark night
I ask if you still love
me and if you still want me
You hesitate, then smoke
another cigarette and tell me another lie
I remember a time when I knew that you cared
You'd phone just to say you were thinking of me
I say I'll forget all about you when you walk out
on me
But how can I forget you after all the hell you've
put me through?
All too soon we go our
seperate ways
You send me on my way
with another empty vow
I watch the distance between
us increase through tears
Knowing that I haven't
a chance in hell of success with you.
