The Promise (Cover)
[Verse I] Once you stood before the storm, Swore your heart would keep me warm. Under fading silver skies, You whispered truth behind your lies. Your voice became my guiding flame, You vowed that love would never fade. Through the ashes, through the pain, You swore we'd rise again. --- [Chorus] But the promise has been broken, The circle torn apart. The words we spoke are empty now, Just echoes in the dark. The promise has been shattered, The bond we once believed. What’s left are only memories, Of the love that couldn’t breathe. --- [Verse II] You said you'd guard me through the night, Be my strength, my endless light. Through every shadow, every scar, You swore you'd find me where we are. But silence fell where dreams once sang, And truth dissolved like burning rain. Your warmth turned cold, your faith decayed, And love began to fade away. --- [Chorus] The promise has been broken, The circle torn apart. The words we spoke are empty now, Just echoes in the dark. The promise has been shattered, The bond we once believed. What’s left are only memories, Of the love that couldn’t breathe. --- [Bridge – Orchestral build] I waited for your shadow’s trace, In every dream, in every place. But ghosts can’t hold, and hearts can’t lie, The promise fell — and so did I. --- [Verse III – The Fall] Now you’ve gone beyond my reach, The vow you made, just hollow speech. You left me here, with tears and flame, A broken soul that calls your name. Your oath has turned to dust and wind, The faith we shared now lies in sin. You left me where the darkness grows, The promise died — and no one knows. --- [Final Chorus – Full orchestral power] The promise has been broken, The bond forever gone. The love we swore eternal, Now a shadow of the song. The promise lies in pieces, Among the dreams we burned. And in the ashes of our fate, I’ve finally learned — The promise was never yours to keep. --- [Outro – Instrumentaal] [Instrumental]
