Following through
There are things everyone says
There are things that everyone do
Every time I hear your voice
I wonder if you follow through
I promise I will do better
I promise I will care
I hear the waiver in your tone
And I know you might not follow through
The way you touch me is the same
And even how you hold my hand
How do you expect me to trust
When you say you will follow through
Your words don’t mean the same to me
Nor does the feeling from your heart
Because I have been through it all before
When I thought you were following through
The night is almost over
And you say you will be always here
But I see you leave my door
And I see you following through
The way you used to be
And the light that used to shine
Now my halls are dark and my hand is empty
Because you followed through
The old paths that you take
And the new ones coming up
How can you say you want me
If I know you wont follow me through
Every road is sought with anger
Every touch I feel is pain
I don’t need you next to me
If I cant have you follow through
The tears are quiet now
And silence is deafening around
Because I know that I love you
But I know my heart is through following you
