Keep Me

Is there a reason for this heavier side of things?
Is there another moment to call my hiding place?
I’d been in safety so long I didn’t stop to think
That fairytales don’t make it far past the last page
Should I pretend that I don’t need
A real apology?
Well, I can’t tell you what went wrong
I don’t know why love’s come and gone
But let me tell you what I know before you leave
You promised you’d keep me
How did I lose my place and become just second best?
Did you prepare me for this? Was I not listening?
Who needs your good intentions? I wish you’d just confess
But now we’re locked in silence so loud it’s deafening
Come on now, where’s your follow through?
Or did you forget that, too?
Well, I can’t tell you what went wrong
I don’t know why love’s come and gone
But let me tell what I know before you leave
You promised you’d keep me
