Empty Promises

Verse 1

Wet cheeks, cool breeze

I don't think I'm gonna make it this time

I walk, this street

Everyday but now it don't feel right

Need you, with me

To hold my hand for these mountains I climb

I still believe

Your shadow will follow me home tonight

Chorus

I would tell you I'm ashamed

If I could seem to face the day

But I would put it in a frame

Before I threw it all away

I lost the pieces to the game

Long before you said you'd stay

Even if your heart remains

Your soul left with you that day

I swear to you that I will change

If you promise me you'll stay the same

Verse 2

My whole body

Trembles and the sun refuses to shine

Just wait, you'll see

You say I'll get well, but I don't think you're right

First off, I plead

Maybe tomorrow I will be fine

Till then we'll be

Together because your shadow's here all the time

Chorus

Bridge

And if I walk into the grave

Will you pull me out again?

If I can't escape the rain

Will you sing away the pain?

If I fall and can't get up

Please tell me you won't give up

And when push it comes to shove

Will you show me how to love?

Will you show me how to love?

Will you show me how to love?

Outro

I swear to you that I will change

If you promise me you'll stay
