Empty Promises

[Verse]

I am broken, left, and forgotten

Stayed all alone with my problems

No phone calls, no text messages

No signs from the people I love

They don't care if I'm alive or dead

All their thoughts are about threats


[Pre-Chorus]

He made me crazy, called me sick

They say my place is in the clinic

He's the reason they believed him

Why they blame me for all the sins

After they gave me


[Chorus]

Empty promises (empty promises)

Their love was never true

It wasn't what they'd value

Did I deserve to lose it all?

Did I deserve to be ignored?

Will they ever open their eyes?

Will my close people realize

He had them wrapped around his finger


[Post-Chorus]

Empty promises (empty promises)

Oh, oh, oh, oh


[Verse 2]

I am lonely, left, and forgotten

Been suffering since I was young

School bullying, infamous slander

No things change as I get older

They don't show any kind of mercy

Calling me mean, selfish, and nasty


[Pre-Chorus]

He is the reason I've been so wild

When will I stop being terrorized?

He made me dangerous and crazy

Even though I'm just a scared baby

Who always heard


[Chorus]

Empty promises (empty promises)

Their love was never true

It wasn't what they'd value

Did I deserve to lose it all?

Did I deserve to be ignored?

Will they ever open their eyes?

Will my close people realize

He had them wrapped around his finger


[Bridge]

Whoa, whoa, whoa (oh, oh, oh)

Broken promises (oh, oh, oh)

Yeah, yeah, yeah (oh, oh, oh)

Broken promises (mm-mm-m-m)


[Chorus]

Empty promises (empty promises)

Their love was never true

It wasn't what they'd value

Did I deserve to lose it all?

Did I deserve to be ignored?

Will they ever open their eyes?

Will my close people realize

He had them wrapped around his finger


[Outro]

I'm just a poor, lonely orphan

Trying to catch her fortune

I'm just a girl left by everyone

'Cause I was made a demon
