Echo of a Promise
You stayed because of a promise
Just a few simple words
I promise I’ll be better
I promise I’ll change
I promise things will never be the same
In a good way, you hoped
But boy, were you wrong
That promise was nothing but a siren song
They say they will try
They say theyll do better
You tell yourself this is where it ends
But when it happens again
You let it slide
Because what you tell yourself?
That was the lie
