We met when the fireworks lit up the sky Your eyes were brighter than the stars that night You said: I've never felt love before And I believed you, I gave you more You held my hand, said: I'm not like the rest Promised forever with your head on my chest But you said you'd stay You swore you'd never walk away You begged for love like it would save your life Then left me drowning in your new year's lie Just a spark, then a fade I was real, you were just a parade You cried like the world had broken you So I gave you everything I knew But days went by, and so tries this Just cold and cruel I kept replaying that midnight kiss Wondering how it turned to this Cause you said you'd stay You swore you'd never walk away You begged for love like it would save your life Then left me drowning in your new year's lie Just a flame, then you're gone Guess your promises don't last long Or maybe too much You wanted healing, I wanted touch Now I'm alone with echoes of you In the room where we said: We'd make it through Yeah, you said you'd stay But you disappeared like yesterday You begged for love, said: Don't let me die Then vanished into your new year's lie Now I know Not every spark means the fire will grow You were the start of my year But just another end, I fear
