The Vow

Intro

The vow

I said the vow

Yeah

Verse 1

Cold

Concrete slab

My house a museum

Marble floors don't hold any warmth

Empty

I built these walls too high for humans

Locked the heavy gate

Threw the silver key in the canyon

I saw it

I felt it

I lived it

No more

Checking the phone for a text that ain't coming

Running

From a ghost in a silk dress

Chorus

I made a promise to the ceiling fan

I made a promise to the empty bed

Never again

Never again

Falling is for the weak ones

Falling is for the ones who don't know the end

I'm done with the love

I'm done with the love

I'm done with the love

Verse 2

Signed

Ink on the paper bled like a wound

Lawyers in the lobby

Vultures

Waiting for a piece of the rib I gave away

Don't touch me

Don't look at me

Don't talk to me

Ice in the veins

Numb is the new luxury

I bought a tank just to feel something solid

Solid

Like the rock I used to build our home

Stone

Turned to sand between my greedy fingers

I'm the king of a kingdom with no queen

Solitary

By design

By the blood

By the vow

Chorus

I made a promise to the ceiling fan

I made a promise to the empty bed

Never again

Never again

Falling is for the weak ones

Falling is for the ones who don't know the end

I'm done with the love

I'm done with the love

I'm done with the love

Bridge

Cut the wire

Burn the bridge

Kill the fire

I don't need a rib to be a man

I don't need a hand to hold the world

Look at what you made

Look at what I became

Look at what is left

Nothing

Chorus

I made a promise to the ceiling fan

I made a promise to the empty bed

Never again

Never again

Falling is for the weak ones

Falling is for the ones who don't know the end

I'm done with the love

I'm done with the love

I'm done with the love

Outro

Keep the flowers

Keep the ring

Keep the memories

I'll keep the silence

The vow is the only thing I have left

The vow

The vow

The vow

Amen
