Watch My Promise Die (Audiotree Version)

Caught in the spiral

Of constant fear

Numb to the sickness

Distance myself from my blessings

Comfort in my sabotage of self

Embracing their poison with a tightened grasp

The pen bleeds dry

Tearing myself from the inside

Run from the light

Watch my promise die

I beg myself not to let you down

As I feel myself sink to the ground

Strip me of my flesh

Take what's left

Go

Swallow the hate

Internalize

Killing desire

Desire to thrive

I let their teeth sink

Toxic venom stirs within

The doubt consumes everything

Is this the path that's meant for me? (Meant for me)

How long must I grow to find comfort and peace?

Will the fear subside?

If I give up, will I be able to breathe?

Staring into hollow eyes

Run from the light

Drowning in my own shame

Run from the light

Shattered reflections of you

Run from the light

Watch my promise die
