You wrapped me up in words,
Wrapped me up too tight,
Every layer a promise,
To make things alright,
You're shattering the glass,
Of my transparency,
It hurts too much to think,
You promised me, you promised me,

It's all decomposing,
Into a dusty mess,
Each layer falls away,
At every little test,
I wish that I was blind,
So that I wouldn't see,
How badly I want you to realise,
You promised me, you promised me,

I've always backed away,
So now I understand,
Why you're avoiding what you can't control,
And who I really am,
But everything is raw,
It's aching painfully,
I need you to follow through because,
You promised me, you promised me.
