Promised Hell of Me
Gilberto Henrique
You held my hand and kissed my scars
Said: Even in the dark, I know who you are
You swore that fire wouldn’t make you run
But smoke was rising and you were gone
You spoke of storms like we were stone
But left me drowning all alone
Said you'd be the light when I lost mine
But shadows took your place in time
You promised hell with me
Said you'd walk through every scream
You vowed to catch me when I broke
But watched me hang by thinning rope
You painted love like destiny
Then vanished with the worst of me
Now I burn where you should be
You promised hell with me
I carved your name into my grief
Believed your lies like sacred belief
You kissed my tears, said I won’t go
But promises melt when it starts to snow
You read my pain like poetry
Then left me in the tragedy
Said we'd survive what life became
But I was left to die with your name
You promised hell with me
Said you'd walk through every scream
You vowed to catch me when I broke
But watched me hang by thinning rope
You painted love like destiny
Then vanished with the worst of me
Now I burn where you should be
You promised hell with me
Now I sleep with flames inside my chest
And memories that never rest
You swore your soul would never flee
But ghosts don’t keep good company
You promised hell with me
But ran when demons started to scream
You left me begging at the gate
While you escaped my burning fate
You called it love, then turned to flee
You promised
You promised hell with me
