Broken Promises

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 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 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 Accept what you've done and rise to the challenge (Rise to the challenge) Stop pointing the blame There's no on left to betray You're full of broken promises These days are dark, Filled with heavy clouds 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 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 Put your arms in the air Just another empty promise by those I love Prove your worth, and part the sky for me --- Broken Promises - August Burns Red
