(Verse 1)
Rain on the window, mirroring my tears
Another night haunted by all of these years
Since you left a hole, a gaping, empty space
And ripped the smile right off my weary face.
We swore a forever, a bond that wouldn't break
But shadows whispered promises you couldn't make.
(Chorus)
And I remember whispering low, "If you go, I go too"
A promise whispered, a debt I swore was true.
The cold steel kissed my temple, the trigger in my hand
But the gun just clicked, a twist I couldn't understand.
I broke my last promise to you, my love, it's true
I'm still here breathing, living without you.
(Verse 2)
They said it was selfish, the choice you had to make
To silence all the demons for goodness sake.
But I saw the pain etched deep within your eyes
A silent scream that echoed through the skies.
I should have held you closer, held on with all my might
But darkness claimed you, swallowed you in the night.
(Chorus)
And I remember whispering low, "If you go, I go too"
A promise whispered, a debt I swore was true.
The cold steel kissed my temple, the trigger in my hand
But the gun just clicked, a twist I couldn't understand.
I broke my last promise to you, my love, it's true
I'm still here breathing, living without you.
(Bridge)
Now I wander aimlessly, a ghost in my own life
Haunted by failures, consumed by endless strife.
The guilt it gnaws me, a constant, burning fire
That I didn't save you, fulfill your last desire.
Is this my punishment, to live with all this pain?
To know I failed you, again and then again?
(Chorus)
And I remember whispering low, "If you go, I go too"
A promise whispered, a debt I swore was true.
The cold steel kissed my temple, the trigger in my hand
But the gun just clicked, a twist I couldn't understand.
I broke my last promise to you, my love, it's true
I'm still here breathing, living without you.
(Outro)
Breathing without you, a slow and painful art
Just a broken promise, tearing me apart.
Maybe someday soon, I'll find a way to heal
But the scar remains, a wound that's all too real.
Living without you, forever I will rue
The day I broke that promise, the promise I made to you.
