Promises You Couldn't Keep
Broken Vows: Unmasking Deceit in Amanda Fagan's Melodic Tale
Lyrics
I tried so hard to rescue you
I exerted considerable effort to help you.
Now I see I was the one who needed saving
Now I realize that I was the one in need of assistance.
All of the pain you put me through
I endured the suffering you caused me.
And I can't believe they think you're finally changing
I find it hard to believe that others think you're truly changing.
'Cause you were a maniac and you still are
You were mentally unstable, and it seems you still are.
And they might not know better
Others might be unaware, but I am aware due to the scars you left.
But I know from all of these scars
I bear emotional wounds from our past.
So who's next on your list of manipulated fools
Who is the next person you will manipulate?
And I know I shouldn't care about you, but I do
Although I shouldn't, I still care about you.
But you never asked for me
You never expressed interest in me.
You never checked up on me
You never checked on my well-being.
Oh, why was I so naive
I was too trusting and inexperienced.
Holding on to promises you couldn't keep
I held onto promises that you were incapable of fulfilling.
Why did you have to go invade the only place that ever really gave me safety
Why did you violate the one place that provided me with safety?
The person that you were, I watched them fade
The person you used to be has disappeared, leaving only a distorted version.
Only a twisted apparition remains
What remains is a twisted and distorted image.
So who's next on your list of manipulated fools
Who is the next target for your manipulation?
And I know I shouldn't care about you, but I do
Despite knowing better, I still care about you.
But you never asked for me
You never showed concern for me.
You never checked up on me
You never checked up on my well-being.
Oh, why was I so naive
I was too trusting and inexperienced.
Holding on to promises you couldn't keep
I held onto promises that you were incapable of fulfilling.
You're so manipulative
You are skilled at influencing and controlling others.
I finally figured it out
I have finally realized your manipulative nature.
You never cared about me
Your concern was never genuine.
You only cared about yourself
Your focus was solely on yourself.
You were not the person that I thought you were
You were not the person I thought you were.
You had to be in control
You needed to be in control of situations.
You had to have your power
You craved power and authority.
So who's next on your list of manipulated fools
Who is the next target for your manipulation?
And I know I shouldn't care about you, but I do
Despite knowing better, I still care about you.
But you never asked for me
You never showed concern for me.
You never checked up on me
You never checked up on my well-being.
Oh, why was I so naive
I was too trusting and inexperienced.
Holding on to promises you couldn't keep
I held onto promises that you were incapable of fulfilling.
Holding on to promises you couldn't keep (You couldn't keep)
I held onto promises that you were incapable of fulfilling (Repeated line).
Oh, why was I so naive (Holding on to promises you couldn't keep)
I was too trusting and inexperienced (Repeated line).
