"Promise" lyrics

"Promise"

Tell me why I like it

Sever the heart that ties me here
Bury my hope where you left it
Better off dead with my vices
Say it, I'm helpless
Embrace the end

I'll drown in it
Was it all a dream?
I'll drown in it
What you meant to me
I'll drown in it
Was it all a dream?
I'll drown in it

Tell me why I like it

Don't ever say this'll get easier
Tell me why I like it
Promise you'll stay
Would that be enough?
Tell me why I like it
Make all of your pieces fit all of my flaws
Made me believe that I'd die for this
Promise you'll stay
Would that be enough?

Tell me why I like it
Tell me why I like it
Tell me why I like it

Sever the thought that binds me here
Back into dust like I'm destined
I know I'll fade in the silence
Suffer so perfect, embrace the end

I'll drown in it
Was it all a dream?
I'll drown in it
What you meant to me
I'll drown in it
Was it all a dream?
I'll drown in it

Tell me why I like it

Don't ever say this'll get easier
Tell me why I like it
Promise you'll stay
Would that be enough?
Tell me why I like it
Make all of your pieces fit all of my flaws
Made me believe that I'd die for this
Promise you'll stay
Would that be enough?

Tell me why I like it

You keep using me up
Dig your nails in a little deeper
Oh, I know you wanna slowly wear me away
With every moment, kill the best of me

You killed the best of me

Don't ever say this'll get easier
Tell me why I like it
Promise you'll stay
Would that be enough?
Tell me why I like it
Make all of your pieces fit all of my flaws
Made me believe that I'd die for this
Promise you'll stay
Would that be enough?

Tell me why I like it
Tell me why I like it
Tell me why I like it
