You held my hand and kissed my scars Said: Even in the dark, I know who you are You swore that fire wouldn’t make you run But smoke was rising and you were gone You spoke of storms like we were stone But left me drowning all alone Said you'd be the light when I lost mine But shadows took your place in time You promised hell with me Said you'd walk through every scream You vowed to catch me when I broke But watched me hang by thinning rope You painted love like destiny Then vanished with the worst of me Now I burn where you should be You promised hell with me I carved your name into my grief Believed your lies like sacred belief You kissed my tears, said I won’t go But promises melt when it starts to snow You read my pain like poetry Then left me in the tragedy Said we'd survive what life became But I was left to die with your name You promised hell with me Said you'd walk through every scream You vowed to catch me when I broke But watched me hang by thinning rope You painted love like destiny Then vanished with the worst of me Now I burn where you should be You promised hell with me Now I sleep with flames inside my chest And memories that never rest You swore your soul would never flee But ghosts don’t keep good company You promised hell with me But ran when demons started to scream You left me begging at the gate While you escaped my burning fate You called it love, then turned to flee You promised You promised hell with me
