Promise

paying no attention, paying no heed

waiting for the day to be let free

no more chains to tie me down

a promise broken, love lost but not found

childhood is no longer here

no innocence left in the tears

no one but myself to comfort fears

promise made to love and protect

good qualities and guidance left to inflict

how long has life been fazed

living this life's everyday haze

how you broke your promise is still a sting

holding me down, these useless wings

how can i spread them if you wont let me?

why don't you open your eyes, so my pain you can finally see?
