I made a promise, it's one I'll keep
My path ahead, is far too steep
To worry about, myself anymore
And all those things, my life has in store
It's not about me, it's all about you
You're the reason, for what I'll do
I made myself a vow, a promise forever
No one will hurt you, I swear to god, never

You say that you're hurt, I'll do what I can
Even when too much, for a simple man
I would give my life, to end all your pain
But you sit alone, in the pouring rain
You won't let me near, you won't tell me why
Everything is wrong, and you want to die
It tears me up inside, I'm slipping with you
You've known me so long, you helped me out too

If you don't tell me, I'll hurt more than before
I told you it all, I won't anymore
You're a hypocrite, don't look at me that way
This is all a price, that I shouldn't pay
I don't understand, why you don't tell me
I don't need to know, well I don't agree
Tell me what is wrong, I deserve that much
But if you do not, I won't want your touch

It seems I've damaged, the life you call your own
Now I stand alone, at your new tombstone
Why God did I snap? What did I do wrong?
Why couldn't I wait, for her and be strong?
I hate what I've done, there is no going back
It seems that it's a soul, that I truly lack
I wish I didn't go, and make you upset
I wish you were here, I'm filled with regret
