Promises in the Shadows

[Intro]
Whispers in the dark, promises so sweet
Shadows of a lie, a truth he dares not keep

[Verse 1]
He looks into my eyes, says he’s changed, he’s sincere
But I see through his disguise, the cracks start to appear
Playing the game so well, I fall for every word
But silence in his cell, reveals what’s truly unheard

[Pre-Chorus]
He swears it’s the last time, he’s done with the past
But I find the secrets he’s hiding, they’re shadowed in the glass

[Chorus]
He promises the moon, but hides a different sky
Says he’s not the one, but I see with my own eyes
He tells me he loves only me, but he’s texting someone else
Breaking all the promises, putting love through hell

[Verse 2]
Late night calls and texts, he denies, he’s lying still
His words are like a mask, hiding what he won’t reveal
I begged him to stay true, to leave the past behind
But every little clue reminds me he’s unkind

[Pre-Chorus]
He screams he’s not that man, but the truth’s so clear
When I visit and I see, his message history appears

[Chorus]
He promises the moon, but hides a different sky
Says he’s not the one, but I see with my own eyes
He tells me he loves only me, but he’s texting someone else
Breaking all the promises, putting love through hell

[Bridge]
I finally walk away, no more breaking my soul
His lies like a thorn, have taken their toll
He claims he’s changed, but I know the game
Love’s just a pawn, in his shameful name

[Outro]
Now I see the truth, the love that was a lie
No more tears, no more scars, I’m saying goodbye
He promises the moon, but I’ve seen the fall
Love’s just a story he loves to recall
