Empty Promises

[Verse]
You promised me roses, gave me nothing but thorns,
Swore you'd be true, but you left me forlorn.
Your sweet-talk was honey, but your actions were mean,
Left me in shadows where love can't be seen.
[Verse 2]
You promised me heaven but walked me through hell,
Held my heart captive, in your deceit it fell.
I gave you my all, but you just played your part,
Now I'm picking up pieces of my broken heart.
[Chorus]
Empty promises you made, just lies in disguise,
Sweet words on your lips, with a heart full of ice.
I’ve learned the hard way, love's bitter price,
Now I’m leaving you behind, won’t think twice.
[Verse 3]
You painted a picture of a life so grand,
But left me in ruins, alone in the sand.
Your love was a whisper, your betrayal a roar,
Now I’m locking tight every door.
[Bridge]
I won't be your fool, not anymore,
I’ve found my strength, I’ve unlocked that door.
You thought you broke me, but I’ve come through,
Stronger and wiser, without you.
[Chorus]
Empty promises you made, just lies in disguise,
Sweet words on your lips, with a heart full of ice.
I’ve learned the hard way, love's bitter price,
Now I’m leaving you behind, won’t think twice.
