lyrics

So did you think that I'd come running back to you as soon as you
Left me on the ground to bleed out from where you stuck two
Shards of hope and despair in my side
Now I'm struggling to find out why
Promises made were left silent
And the guilt forever holds a place in my chest
And it keeps me on the fence between integrity and dishonesty
You waited for the day you could bury me away and run
How long can you keep this up?
And how long 'til you realize that
You wanted something more than you could ever admit
But it wasn't safe to stay until the panic set in
Dwelling on the consequence, you left me in the dark
To save yourself from blame in the eyes of everyone
Promises broke are set prominent
Etched with blood and salt that you stained in my skin
And my mistake was putting too much trust in
What we swore we'd never speak of again

This one really hit me because the lyrics are very relevant to my life right now and I was like, about to nap while listening to this for the first time but then I really listened to it and was like "whoaa". Also I live in a place called Belmont so I was like "haha hey that's cool". Jayden
