Lyrics

Broken Promises

[Chorus]

You've given up on us

You've taken all I've made and all I've become

You've given up on us

Just another empty promise by those I love

[Verse 1]

Pushing me down

Flat on the ground trying to escape the pain

I needed you to meet me half way

But I'm left abandoned with nothing more to say

[Verse 2]

I thought family was forever

I thought family stuck together

What's done is done

I'm too far gone

I've never felt so alone

[Verse 3]

Accept what you've done and rise to the challenge

Rise to the challenge

Stop pointing the blame, there's no one left to betray

[Bridge]

You're full of broken promises

You're full of broken promises

[Verse 4]

These days are dark, filled with heavy clouds pouring on me

Pouring on me

I'll keep giving while you keep taking, as my trust in you is breaking

I see now my sacrifice got left by the wayside

[Chorus]

You've given up on us

You've taken all I've made and all I've become

You've given up on us

Just another empty promise by those I love

[Outro]

Put your arms in the air

Prove your worth, and part the sky for me

Put your arms in the air

Prove your worth, and part the sky for me
