Promise Me

(album: Wrapped In Vines, Covered In Thorns - 2017)

I never wanted to see you like this
Fighting for air, not able to speak
Your heart burned so bright
Now it beats slower everyday

Please hold on just a little bit longer
Don't let go
I know you're slipping
But I'm not ready to lose you

I am not ready to lose you

I won't give up on you
Don't you give up on me
I can't believe it's come to this
I thought you had more time
How could this happen you don't deserve this
You were so innocent
This is not right
This isn't fair

I wish that it was me

God, why didn't you make me sick instead?
God, why couldn't you have taken me instead?
I need you now

Please hold on just a little bit longer
Don't let go
I know you're slipping
But I'm not ready to lose you
Promise me that you'll never stop fighting
Don't close your eyes
I will not leave your side
I'm not ready to lose you

What am I supposed to do?
What am I supposed to do?

So cold
No pulse
You took your last breath
Come back
I can't let you go
I am not ready to

Please hold on just a little bit longer
Don't let go
I know you're slipping
But I'm not ready to lose you
Promise me that you'll never stop fighting
Don't close your eyes
I will not leave your side
I'm not ready to lose you
