False Promises

Verse 1:

Met you on a Friday night, under neon city lights so bright,

Whispers turned to promises, felt like everything was right.

Shared our dreams and secrets deep, vowed our love was ours to keep,

But words can be deceiving, and the heart is prone to weep.

Now I'm staring at the ceiling, numb to every fleeting feeling,

Wondering where it all went wrong, and how to start the healing.

Your voice, a distant echo, in the chambers of my mind,

Haunted by the memories of the love we left behind.

Pre-Chorus:

Promises like paper planes, caught up in the pouring rain,

Thought our love would never wane, now I'm alone to bear the pain.

Chorus:

False promises you made to me, shattered dreams and broken pleas,

Left me in this misery, searching for the man I used to be.

Verse 2:

Photographs in black and white, remnants of a love contrite,

Moments that we used to share, now are ghosts within the night.

Tried to hold on to the past, but shadows fade, they never last,

Built our castle in the sand, and watched it crumble fast.

Now the silence is so loud, like a storm without a cloud,

Echoes of your empty vows, lost within the faceless crowd.

Every step I take alone, searching for a way back home,

Haunted by the truth I've known, in a world that's overthrown.

Pre-Chorus:

Promises like paper planes, caught up in the pouring rain,

Thought our love would never wane, now I'm alone to bear the pain.

Chorus:

False promises you made to me, shattered dreams and broken pleas,

Left me in this misery, searching for the man I used to be.

Bridge:

Now I'm picking up the pieces of the life you left behind,

Learning to forgive myself, and leave the past confined.

Though your memory lingers, like a song without a rhyme,

I'll find my way to brighter days, beyond the ties that bind.

Chorus:

False promises you made to me, shattered dreams and broken pleas,

Left me in this misery, searching for the man I used to be.

Outro:

As the music fades away, and night dissolves the light of day,

I'll cherish what we had, and pray, that our symphony in dreams will play.

Though the final note's decay, lingers in this lonely sway,

Your echo will always stay, in the song of yesterday
