I didn't know we'd end up here.
There wasn't a sign from God or anyone and when I said I could I meant it but I didn't know every move I'd do would end up as a fuck up.
And I thought we could make it through but as the fire moved up through the fields I imagined myself losing fear because I suddenly lost the will to resist getting burned.

Cause I promised I'd never hurt you- I didn't think I'd eat those words.

Cause when the water rose high enough to swallow you,
I'm sorry that I never followed through.
And when my world became just another empty room.
I'm sorry that I never followed through.

And people can say all they say and I don't care what they have to say cause I don't want to be in this anyways.
Yeah, if this was a forefront of a battle I'll take it anyways.
Cause people can say all they say and yeah they said all they had to say but when my heart's soaked in shame I'll take this anyways.
But even if it wasn't, I still would.

Cause I promised I'd never hurt you-You never think you'd eat those words.

Cause when the water rose high enough to swallow you,
I'm sorry that I never followed through.
And when my world became just another empty room.
I'm sorry that I never followed through.

Because my ego grew proportionate to my wallet size-the only thing that was bigger was my repeating pride and I grew envious of another man's shirt, another man's shoes because they can do a hell of a lot more for you than I ever could.

Cause I promised I'd never hurt you-You never think you'd eat those words.

Cause when the water rose high enough to swallow you,
I'm sorry that I never followed through.
And when my world became just another empty room.
I'm sorry that I never followed through.
Cause when a heart became the only thing I ever knew I'm sorry that I didn't follow through.
Cause when my heart became just another empty noose I'm sorry that I didn't follow suit.
And I disappointed you.
And disappointed me.
