You Said Empty Promises

Empty Promises
isn't it funny how we say 'there's always tomorrow!' when every moment of our life ahead is like dice tossed on a board what are the odds we live? there is anticipation in every moment yet we make plans for years later we break hearts like we'd live forever we hold back from making amends we promise ourselves we'll be better tomorrow...

Empty Promises
Empty promises.. You smothered me in lies.. Then you said your goodbyes.. A con in disguise you were.. As you lured me in your web of treachery.. You played a fools game.. As I drowned in your chess pool of madness.. Soaked to the skin in your lying web.. Hurt and betrayal join hands as one.. Empty promises made.. I do declare.. that I lay...

The World Full of Empty Promises
The wing of my thought is mountains of disappointments in my skull. The birds clipped their wings descending to heaven. The boulevard to my house is full of thorny grave killing my feet. The heart earthquakes every moment I think the fear of failure in my garden gate. The smile cloud of darkness black memories fighting...

Empty Promises
Stop telling me it's all right when I know that it's not Stop acting like everything's okay as if I had forgot Don't tell me this means nothing when I know it means so much more Don't tell me things will change because I've heard it all before You'll keep making empty promises as if I don't know they're all lies Yet, I still...

Empty Promises
empty promises, what do they mean? Empty promise, what do they say to the listener? Empty promises, do you ever hear them? Empty promises, I want no more, Empty promises, to hear them is so very hard.. Apathy, so common in my world, Apathy, it is everywhere, Apathy, everyone is willing to share, Apathy, no more can...

Empty Promises
You time my heart Day and night you see my innocent heart Night and day you think of me Day and night You fill my heart Day by day With empty promises You fake a smile At night fall When I need you the most You fill my heart with empty promises I thought I was wise Days will make me wise you lofty empty promises Haunt my soul not from that...

Empty Promises
Your promises hold no meaning Like old, brittle plastic they fall apart easily I held onto them once, long ago But now they have become nothing Dead and meaningless The words reverberating through my head I want so desperately to hold onto the belief-the hope-that you’ll hold true But you never do And like a fool, I never make you I never hold...

Empty Promises
Empty promises which hold on weight Blowing aimlessly in whatever direction the winds chooses Whispering lies and deceiving the most strongest of minds The hollowness entangled within your lies torture the very innocence contained throughout my dreams Shattering every existence of hope Launching them into an abyss of darkness Surrounded by a sea of victims who have suffered a similar fate No...

Empty Promises
Empty promises.  You begged me to stay.  Told me your life was falling apart And i was the only way.  My hopes rose.  I awated those words to come from your mouth.  And now it all amounted to nothing.  You lied again.  Bad.  Your broke my heart again.  Sad.  Now nothing to do but sit here and wonder.  What is going to become of this? Is all...
