You Must Promise Me This Will Never Happen Again

Here I lay in my bed of snakes
Their cold scales are the only thing I felt
When the news was broke (Through the new year)
The venom spread so fast
I had no concept of time
or how much longer I'd be able to stay alive

We're all victims of emotions
Loyalty and trust, compromised for the sake of happiness
and in the wake of it all
you destroyed what took us so long to built

the walls came down crumbling around me
i was left to fend for myself and through that
i found the only strength i have is within me
this is when i realized my life is just a series of unfortunate events
and i'm standing in the silhouette

I will smash our memories straight into oblivion
to start anew, to give you the second chance
and if betrayed by your hands again
I swear I won't be as passive
But I have hope, I have hope that you have seen what I've seen
and in this life, you are all i need
I hope you have come to see what I see


Through these murky skies, we will prevail
through these rough seas, we will never anchor down
steadfast through the storm because it's the only way I know

eradicate the memories of the past
to begin a new, to begin your second chance.
don't fail me, I've put everything I know in you.
don't fail me.
