Brad DeYoung - Promises

You give me hope
When I'm alone
Give me the strength to face it all
Even in darkest of the days
I can see light
Deep in my soul
I fall like a stone
That's where I'm left to wonder
Why it is I let you have all the power over me
Guess that's why
That's why

All you ever wanted was to throw it all away
Promises fall and they sleep where they lay
Empty feelings lie and they stretch out the pain until it's gone
Rise up and know that it will be ok
Nothing that you said will keep me at bay
All your empty feelings they'll eat you alive until it's gone
It's all gone

You are my ghost
When I'm alone
I feel the touch is fading off
Even in brightest of the nights
You give me life
Deep in my soul
I've lost all control
That's where I'm always haunted
Thinking of the power I let you have over me
Well that's why
That's why

All you ever wanted was to throw it all away
Promises fall and they sleep where they lay
Empty feelings lie and they stretch out the pain until it's gone
Rise up and know that it will be ok
Nothing that you said will keep me at bay
All your empty feelings they'll eat you alive until it's gone
It's all gone

What is the reason
Why is there nowhere left to run the road is gone.
There is no reason
Why there is infinitely more than one way out
But that's why

All you ever wanted was to throw it all away
Promises fall and they sleep where they lay
Empty feelings lie and they stretch out the pain until it's gone
Rise up and know that it will be ok
Nothing that you said will keep me at bay
All your empty feelings they'll eat you alive until it's gone
It's all gone
