August Elliott - Promise Lyrics

Do you feel sad inside?
Cause I know I do
And every day you act just fine?
Cause I know I do
Did the time in your life slip by?
Cause I know mine did
And this ain't what you had in mind?
You wanna rewind but there's no use in trying

Depression is a cold abyss
It won't let me go I'm over it
And this is how I've always been
It's the only thing I know makes sense
I don't wanna waste my time on nothing
And I don't wanna say goodbye to someone I care about
So maybe I should disconnect from each and everybody

I'm trying not to fall asleep
Cause the demons always haunt my dreams
In my brain I need some harmony
Cause as of late it's getting hard to breathe
My condition is a part of me
The way I think is like my arms and knees
So can you tell if that's hard to see
And can you love someone who's heart might bleed?

I wish I could promise
That everything will be just fine
But I don't always get the option
To find a little peace of mind
And if I'm being honest
It's a prison where I be confined
But I always try my hardest
For the purpose that I need to find

Depression is a cold abyss
It won't let me go I'm over it
And this is how I've always been
It's the only thing I know makes sense
I don't wanna waste my time on nothing
And I don't wanna say goodbye to someone I care about
So maybe I should disconnect from each and everybody

I'm trying not to fall asleep
Cause the demons always haunt my dreams
In my brain I need some harmony
Cause as of late it's getting hard to breathe
My condition is a part of me
The way I think is like my arms and knees
So can you tell if that's hard to see
And can you love someone who's heart might bleed?

I wish I could promise
That everything will be just fine
But I don't always get the option
To find a little peace of mind
And if I'm being honest
It's a prison where I be confined
But I always try my hardest
For the purpose that I need to find
