I once looked up to you, imagining how it would be
To be a man like you, would be a blessing to me
You taught me how to hunt, to take everything I need
I thought I had it all, you were everything to me

Look at it, this heart of glass
Can you feel it break? Feel it shatter
Where we have been, is in the past
Cause in the end, it doesn't matter

All your sins were once a promise
All your lies were once a promise
What you did was once a promise
I promise you, you never loved us

Can you see how my trust is frayed?
The same old line, everyday
You swear to love, you swear to stay
You claim that I'm the light of day
But the shards still come crashing down
The spyglass wasn't honest
I'm left alone with a little less
All because you promised

I thought that I had found the one
If I was the night, you were my sun
The earth, revolving around us
I was blind to see what you've become

Look at it, this heart of glass
Can you feel it break? Feel it shatter
Where we have been, is in the past
'Cause in the end, it doesn't matter

All your sins, you promised me
All your lies, you promised me
What you did, you promised me
I promise you, you never loved me

Can you see how my trust is frayed?
The same old line, everyday
You swear to love, you swear to stay
You claim that I'm the light of day
But the shards still come crashing down
The spyglass wasn't honest
I'm left alone with a little less
All because you promised

Now can you see that I've been betrayed?
My heart's desire, has been outweighed
I'm scared to love, in any way
If I'm the night then I'll just stay that way
'Cause the shards still come crashing down
Like the fortress, before it
I'm left alone, beneath the ground
All because you promised

You Promised

I came to you when no one else did
I cared for you, I even took you in
We promised for our hearts' sake
That we would make this last
You can see it, not too far away
Use the spyglass, take it at last

Look at it, this heart of glass
Can you feel it break? Feel it shatter
Where we have been, is in the past
'Cause in the end, it doesn't matter

Can you see how my trust is frayed?
The same old line, everyday
You swear to love, you swear to stay
You claim that I'm the light of day
But the shards still come crashing down
The spyglass wasn't honest
I'm left alone with a little less
All because you promised

Now can you see that I've been betrayed?
My heart's desire, has been outweighed
I'm scared to love, in any way
If I'm the night then I'll just stay that way
'Cause the shards still come crashing down
Like the fortress, before it
I'm left alone, beneath the ground
All because you promised

You Promised
