promise anymore

I’m sorry, love

I don’t think I can keep pretending.

The way I feel has changed,

I used to care, I used to love,

but now it’s just anxiety echoing inside.

I pray the midnight rain will decide

if all of this was fear or fate.

I never meant to change,

but everything around me made me this way.

I can’t go back to who I was.

And I hold myself at midnight,

wondering where you are tonight.

I can’t keep that promise anymore

to love you forevermore.

I can’t keep that promise anymore

to love you forevermore.

I can’t keep that promise anymore

to love you forevermore.

’Cause my heart’s not yours to hold.

If I break that vow, will it be alright?

I never lied to you before,

oh ,I never lied to you before.

Maybe some distance will save us,

it’s better than this silence we live in.

I have to grow, I have to move,

you know, the wounded don’t grow numb

they just learn not to speak.

And in your heart there’s someone else,

so tell me, how can love survive that?

I was the real one forced to hide,

a shadow standing behind your light.

And I hold myself at midnight,

wondering where you are tonight.

I can’t keep that promise anymore

to love you forevermore.

I can’t keep that promise anymore

to love you forevermore.

I can’t keep that promise anymore

to love you forevermore.

’Cause my heart’s not yours to hold.

If I break that vow, will it be alright?

I never lied to you before.

You’re right from where you stand,

and I’m right from mine.

But I was never anyone’s standby,

never meant to be a borrowed love.

I heard your lies every day,

bled from your words every night.

I hope you’ll live just fine without me,

don’t chase, don’t let go of her

I’ll be the one to leave (the one to leave),

to walk away (walk away).

It’s time now

to release your hand,

and step into my own light.

I can’t keep that promise anymore

to love you forevermore.

I can’t keep that promise anymore

to love you forevermore.

I can’t keep that promise anymore

to love you forevermore.

I can’t keep that promise anymore

to love you forevermore.

I can’t keep that promise anymore

to love you forevermore.

I can’t keep that promise anymore

to love you forevermore.

’Cause my heart’s not yours to hold.

If I break that vow, will it be alright?

I never lied to you before.
