You swore you’d never let me fall
That you’d be there through it all
But when the weight got close to you
You disappeared like shadows do

I searched for answers in the static
All I found was empty space
You thought that silence was protection
But it carved lines across my face

You promised not to break me
So you chose to disappear
But your silence cut much deeper
Than the words I’ll never hear
You thought you saved me from the fire
But you left me in the cold
You promised not to hurt me
Your silence said it all

The phone stayed quiet night by night
You slipped away without a fight
No last goodbye, no reason why
Just empty echoes where you lied

You built a cage around the truth
Thinking it would set me free
But all I see are broken promises
That still keep haunting me

You promised not to break me
So you chose to disappear
But your silence cut much deeper
Than the words I’ll never hear
You thought you saved me from the fire
But you left me in the cold
You promised not to hurt me
Your silence said it all

If love is mercy, this was cruel
To treat me like a fragile fool
You thought retreat could make me whole
But the absence burned a deeper hole

You promised not to break me
So you vanished in the night
But your silence was the sharpest blade
No comfort, just the bite
You thought you saved me from the fire
But you left me in the cold
You promised not to hurt me
Your silence said it all

Your silence said it all
Your silence said it all
