Promise
Promise.
A soft whisper
Betrayal, lies, and emptiness
There is no truth anymore
There is no trust
Thunder sounds in the distance
Rain pours from the sky
I step out into it
Away from you
Hoping to be washed away
Wishing the rain would cleanse my soul
Cleanse me, protect me from what I've heard
Watching lightning crash nearby, I shiver
It's fierce and threatening, like you
There's no stopping, and no going back
I continue
My voyage into freedom is still just a dream
but I will make it
Away from you I can make it
Promise.
