Empty Promises Lyrics

You left me dying
Of a broken heart
Not caring enough
That you ripped me apart

Drowning in my tears
For the loss that I feel
I should have known
That it could never be real

Chorus:
Pretty words filled my head
Empty promises you made
Taking my soul
With my heart I paid

It was only a game
A mere pastime for you
Now you've left me alone
Feeling empty and used

You gave too little
And now its too late
As sorrow floods my heart
I succumb to fate

Chorus

Like sands through an hourglass
Words sift through my mind
I wonder what you were thinking
And why I was so blind

You gave me the words
That I longed to hear
Never understanding
Now its all so clear

With a last painful look
Eyes devoid of light
Slowly I turn away
Walking into the night
