It was so easy to lie
It took no effort for you to make me cry
And you can say all the words
Of the man you wish you were
But that won't erase
The hell that you let raise
Promises that fall through
Empty and full of you
I know that you were hurting
But why was I such a burden?
Now you get to forget
When you know my scars run deeper than I let on
And I let you in
I was hesitant
How can I trust again?
When the light I knew turned dim?

Promises that fall through
Empty and full of you
I know that you were hurting
But why was I such a burden?
And why do you get to
Move on like nothing's new?
Like you didn't shatter my world?
For once I have no words
We so quickly burned out
Was I thinking straight or was I just bleeding out?
You were everything
I was barely breathing
Now you got me guessing
Was it love or wishful thinking?
Promises that fall through
Empty and full of you
I know that you were hurting
But why was I such a burden?
