Untitled

You slid that promise ring onto my hand,

Said, “One day I’ll make you my wife like we planned.”

We talked about babies with your eyes and my smile,

A little house somewhere quiet outside the city lights.

You used to trace future dreams on my skin,

Now I don’t even know who you’ve been.

Four years building a life in my head,

While you were sleeping in somebody else’s bed.

Pre-Chorus

How do you promise forever so easy,

Then break it like it meant nothing?

Chorus

Cheater, liar, you asked for my forever,

While texting other girls behind my back whenever.

I wore your promise ring like it was gold,

Now it just feels heavy and cold.

We talked about wedding vows and baby names,

Matching last names and picture frames.

Now I’m crying with your ring in my hand,

Trying to understand.

Verse 2

Remember driving late with music low,

Talking ‘bout our kids and how they’d grow?

You said our daughter would have my eyes,

Funny coming from someone built on lies.

I defended you when everyone warned me,

Thought real love meant loyalty.

But real love doesn’t hide their phone,

Or make you feel alone when you’re not alone.

Pre-Chorus

I gave you everything I had,

And you still wanted more than that.

Chorus

Cheater, liar, you asked for my forever,

While texting other girls behind my back whenever.

I wore your promise ring like it was gold,

Now it just feels heavy and cold.

We talked about wedding vows and baby names,

Matching last names and picture frames.

Now I’m crying with your ring in my hand,

Trying to understand.

Bridge

Was I just practice for somebody new?

Did you say those same dreams to them too?

Did you tell her about the life we planned,

While I still wore your future on my hand?

Final Chorus

Cheater, liar, you almost had me forever,

A whole future we were supposed to build together.

But I’d rather lose four years than lose myself,

Waiting for a love that loved someone else.

So keep the promises you couldn’t keep,

And the empty vows you sold to me.

‘Cause one day I’ll find somebody true,

Who talks about forever — and actually does too.
