Lyrics
So much for your promises
Expressing disappointment or betrayal over unfulfilled promises.
They died the day you let me go
Highlighting the emotional impact of the speaker being let go, suggesting the death of promises.
Caught up in a web of lies
Describing the speaker's entanglement in a deceitful situation.
But it was just too late to know
Realizing the deception, but too late to avoid the consequences.
I thought it was you
Believing that the person addressed was trustworthy.
Who would stand by my side
Expecting support and loyalty from the person being addressed.
And now you've given me, given me
Expressing the disappointment from the relationship, emphasizing the impact.
Nothing but shattered dreams, shattered dreams
Conveying the result of the broken promises—shattered dreams.
Feel like I could run away, run away
Feeling the desire to escape from the pain and disappointment.
From this empty heart
Describing the emotional void left by the broken promises.
You said you'd die for me
Recalling a commitment of extreme devotion from the person being addressed.
Woke up to reality
Awakening to the harsh reality of the situation.
And found the future not so bright
Facing a less promising and bright future than initially envisioned.
I dreamt the impossible
Having dreams or aspirations that seemed unattainable.
That maybe things could work out right
Wishing for a positive outcome that now seems unlikely.
I thought it was you
Believing in the integrity of the person addressed.
Who would do me no wrong
Discovering betrayal or wrongdoing by the person being addressed.
But now you've given me, given me
Expressing the outcome of broken trust—shattered dreams.
Nothing but shattered dreams, shattered dreams
Feeling the desire to escape due to the emotional pain.
Feel like I could run away, run away
Describing the emptiness and sorrow in the speaker's heart.
From this empty heart
Reiterating the impact of broken promises on the emotional state.
You've given me, given me
Experiencing the aftermath of trust betrayal—shattered dreams.
Nothing but shattered dreams, shattered dreams
Repeating the feeling of wanting to run away from the pain.
Feel like I could run away, run away
Expressing the emptiness and desire to escape from emotional pain.
From this empty heart
Reiterating the emotional void and the urge to run away.
From this empty heart
Emphasizing the emotional emptiness experienced by the speaker.
I thought it was you
Reiterating the belief in the person's commitment to love.
Who said they'd die for love
Discovering that the person's commitment was not genuine.
And now you've given me, given me
Expressing the result of broken promises—shattered dreams.
Nothing but shattered dreams, shattered dreams
Feeling the desire to escape from the emotional devastation.
Feel like I could run away, run away
Reiterating the impact of trust betrayal on the speaker's emotions.
From this empty heart
Describing the emptiness and desire to escape from emotional pain.
You've given me, given me
Expressing the outcome of broken trust—shattered dreams.
Nothing but shattered dreams, shattered dreams
Feeling the desire to escape due to the emotional pain.
Feel like I could run away, run away
Describing the emptiness and sorrow in the speaker's heart.
From this empty heart
Reiterating the impact of broken promises on the emotional state.
Oh, no, no, no
Expressing a sense of denial or disbelief in response to the broken promises.
You said you'd die for me
Recalling a commitment of extreme devotion from the person being addressed.
Oh, for
Expressing disappointment or frustration with the broken promises.
Die for me
Repeating the idea of someone promising to die for the speaker.
So much for your promises
Reiterating the disappointment and betrayal over unfulfilled promises.
So much for your promises
