Natasha Fairbairn - I Can Promise You

You looked my Father
In the eyes
You told him his girl
Would be alright
So long as she played
Her cards right
But you left that part out
I tried to remember
How it was
Before your mask
Was taken off
And I tried to love
What was underneath
Stepping on eggshells
Still broke your heart
Everything about me
Tore you apart
So I snuffed out my light
And I
Stood in the dark with you
Now I can promise you
You’ll never hold me
In your arms again
And I can promise you
You’ll never wake to
My smile in the morning
And I can promise you
These eyes will never
Look at you the same
And I can promise you
cha bhith mi sàmhach
agus gun fheum
Nothing you say
Can hurt me now
Nothing you say
Can hurt me now
Terrified of all
That you would lose
You could hold down the wind
If you wanted to
And you had a way
Of making me believe
So I followed you
You pushed me down
And I blamed myself
Convinced me I was crazy
I needed help
But you were always lying
To yourself
Now I can promise you
You’ll never hold me
In your arms again
And I can promise you
You’ll never wake to
My smile in the morning
And I can promise you
These eyes will never
Look at you the same
And I can promise you
cha bhith mi sàmhach
agus gun fheum
Nothing you say
Can hurt me now
Nothing you say
Can hurt me now
Manipulation
Deprivation
Of everything
I ever needed
Behind closed doors you
Dug your claws in
I lowered myself down
Into the grave
That you made
Just for me
Nothing you say
Can hurt me now
Nothing you say
Can hurt me now
Nothing you say
Can hurt me now
Nothing you say
Can hurt me now
Nothing you say
Can hurt me now
Nothing you say
Can hurt me now
