I don't make promises that I don't intend to keep,
but your lies turn me around-or so it seems.
I don't tell lies, but you couldn't just let things be.
Look at me right now, and what you've done to me.
You made me lie within those shattered promises.
I owe you nothing because you've ruined me in this.
You see, those promises, I never would have made
if not for you, but I don't take them back today.
So, now, now promises, and these I know I'll keep.
They're not for you though, these promises to me.
I promise that I won't hurt myself in any way,
and as for you-I guess I won't today.
I promise the tears that you know you have caused
will forever-now-permanently pause.
I promise that the life that you took away
has come back to me, and will stay past today.
I promise simple things that I intend to keep.
And now that you are gone, I promise these to me.
