Follow Through

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.
