Promises

Promise you won't fall in love with me, if you do I will run
Promise me that I'm not the one, I don't belong on that pedestal
Promise me that I'm just a phase, another notch in your bedpost
Promise me that I'm going to be a distant memory, you will forget me

I promise you when I fall in love with you, I will run
I promise that your the one I will push away
I promise that your not a phase, you are my saving grace
I promise that your memory will bring me light in the dark

Promise you will walk away when we need it most
Promise me I'll be the one to get hurt
Promise me I'll be who suffers, cut me deep
Promise me I'll be able to feel, give me what I desire

I promise to never know pleasure again
I promise you that no other will mark me as you
I promise you that I will hide myself from this world
I promise you that I'll drown in the darkness

Promise to show me your anger
Promise me I will feel your pain
Promise me I will wear your scars
Promise me I will beg for more

I promise you that your my beginning
I promise now to suffer forever
I promise now to give you what you want
I promise now to swallow your venom

Forever I will be in the darkness I craved, leaving you in the light. This I promise you.
