SHELLY

Empty Promises

You said everything will be alright

That I won\'t have to fuss or fight

That things will be smooth & hassle-free

But I think you lied to me

 

You promised if I get with you

All the bad thing I won\'t go through

You sold me a dream that I believed

And in my heart your words conceived 

 

I opened up my eyes and see

A life filled with disappointment & misery

Your sweet words now leave a sour taste

And I think of how much my life is a waste

 

Now I sit here trying to come to terms

Of this horrible lesson I learned

To get up everyday & face the fact

That what I gave you, I can\'t get back
