Yours Faithfully Lyrics

You gave me a ring

Said to keep it safe

Gave me a promise

Said you'd keep it always

But after all these years

And after all my tears

You barely even remembered my name

And I know that I will never be

In your arms but I can dream

Of a time when I didn't

Know your face

I see you standing there

Laughing, without a care

I wonder if you're feeling

This way too

And I know exactly what I did

I held on with such a tight grip

Hoping not to end up as the fool

All this time I've let you have

A piece of my heart in your hands

And now I'm asking for it back

And I won't let it make the same mistakes again

I didn't want to write this song

I prayed and begged for so long

That you'd come to your senses

And back to me

But now I see, I was the one

Who woke up and carried on

When my whole life lay shattered

At my feet

Cuz the suffering was not quick

It's not a gunshot to the head

But a dull knife

Dug into my back

And every time you turn away

It's another twist, a month of pain

But you don't even realize, do you

Your scheming friends

They stare at me

With a chilling animosity

That's left me all alone

Out in the cold

And tell me now, cuz I don't know

How to live my life with a heart so broke

That I can't even find all the pieces

But now I see

There's light ahead

This darkness cannot keep me dead

You tried your best but you didn't

Ruin me

Signed, Yours Faithfully
