Broken promises

(low piano note, distant violin)

You said forever…

But forever… didn’t stay…

(violin slowly rises)

Now I’m left… with broken promises…

I remember how you held me close

Like you’d never let me go

Every word you said felt like forever

Now it’s just an echo

All the dreams we built together

Falling piece by piece

I’m standing in the silence

Where your love used to be

How did we go from everything

To strangers overnight…

Broken promises, scattered on the floor

Every “I love you” don’t mean a thing no more

You said you’d stay, you swore you’d never leave

Now I’m the one still begging you to believe

Broken promises, tearing me apart

Left me with the pieces of a shattered heart

I gave you all, but it was never enough

Now I’m drowning in your broken love

Every place we used to go

Feels like it’s frozen in time

I still see your shadow next to mine

But you’re no longer mine

Was it all just an illusion

Something we couldn’t keep?

Or did you just stop choosing

The love you promised me?

I tried to hold on tight

But you were already gone…

Broken promises, scattered on the floor

Every “I love you” don’t mean a thing no more

You said you’d stay, you swore you’d never leave

Now I’m the one still begging you to believe

(piano only, almost whisper)

Was I just a moment…

You were passing through?

(violin builds)

Or was I the only one

Who thought it all was true…

Broken promises, echo in my soul

Every lie you told is taking its toll

You said forever, but forever lied

Now I’m learning how to say goodbye

Broken promises… I let you go

Even if it hurts more than you’ll ever know…

(piano + fading violin)

You said forever…

But forever… let me go…
