Fading Promises

Your words drift like smoke in the air
They hold me close, but they're never there
A fleeting vow breaking in the light
You're fading fast, falling out of sight

I chase the spark, but it slips away
Your promises burn, turning grey
In the silence, the rhythm pulls me still
Your empty words, they give me a chill

The truth is cold, cutting me through
I'm holding on, but I'm losing you
I chase the spark, but it slips away
Your promises burn, turning grey

Fading promises, fading disguise
Every beat echoes your lies
The sound takes the pain away
Fading promises, they can’t stay

The beat goes on, but I'm left behind
Your words still echo in my mind
Fading promises fall apart
They consume me deep, they break my heart
