promise // laufey (sped up)

it hurts to be something, it’s worse to be nothing with you

#spedup

[cherrysws_]

I made a promise
To distance myself
Took a flight, through aurora skies
Honestly, I didn't think about
How we didn't say goodbye
Just see you very soon

It hurts to be something
It's worse to be nothing with you

So I didn't call you
For 16 long days
And I should get, a cigarette
For so much restraint
No matter how long I resist temptation
I will always lose

It hurts to be something
It's worse to be nothing with you

I've done the math
There's no solution
We'll never last
Why can't I let go of this?

So I broke my promise
I called you last night
I shouldn't have, I wouldn't have
If it weren't for the sight of a boy
Who looked just like you
Standing out on Melrose Avenue

It hurts to be something
It's worse to be nothing with you

It hurts to be something
It's worse to be nothing with you

When I hear This Song It Gives me A Heavy Feeling, I Feel like Everyone Will Leave me Behind On this Cruel World, I feel Like All of my love Ones Will Disappear One By one, I Feel like I Will Be A Loner, Yet This Feeling of Mine is Coming True. Two of My Friends Hated me And the other Two Left me Behind, I Can’t Do Anything to stop This, I Just Need to Enjoy My time wirh them.

I put this on a loop and I don't know how many time have I listen to this but I knew I have listen to this more than 100 times

[shcky]

[maryshadburne-kf]
