The Wolves Howling In My Head

Promises

From an early age,
I made a promise.
I'll never cheat
I'll never lie

From our beginning,
I promised you
I'll never cheat
I'll never lie

Despite new facts,
You promised too.
You'd never cheat.
You'd never lie.

Four years went on,
I kept my promise
I never did cheat
I never told a lie

But a broken person,
Made a broken promise.
For a week you cheat,
For a week you lie.

From an early age,
I promised,
I wouldn't go back
To those who hurt me.

From our beginning,
I promised you,
That no matter what,
Who I'd love was you.

I never cheated.
I never lied.
I have yet to run back to you.
That's a problem when I only love you.
