Empty Promises

I wish you never held me

If you knew you'd let me go.

I wish you never promised

Things you never meant to hold.

You made me feel so special,

Then you made me feel so small.

Now I'm learning how to live

With the silence after it all.

I gave you every part of me,

I trusted every word.

Now every beautiful memory Feels like something that still hurts.

I wish you never loved me,

If love was gonna end this way.

I wish you never touched my heart If you were only gonna

walk away. You left me with the memories,

You left me with the pain.

I wish you never loved me,

Because I don't know how to love again.

I still remember mornings

When you called to say my name.

I never thought the sweetest voice Would become my deepest pain.

I kept all your promises

Like they were written in my soul.

But promises mean nothing

When the person lets you go.

Maybe I was foolish For believing you were mine.

Maybe I ignored the warning Hidden in your eyes.

But I would give anything To go back to that day,

Before you said forever,

Before you walked away.

I wish you never loved me,

But I know I can't undo the past.

I wish I could erase you,

But some memories always last.

You left me with the memories,

You left me with the pain.

I wish you never loved me,

Because I don't know how to love again.

I don't hate you...

I just hate what you left behind.

A heart that still remembers Someone who left it all behind.
