Promises of true love

I swear I swear    
To always care    
To never go back    
Under attack    
Only in daylight    
When it’s not hard to fight    
and never at night    
When I have no sight    
   
You swear you swear    
To never tear    
Your skin over your chest    
putting yourself to the test    
For the bleeding scars    
Are worse than cigars    
A powerful addiction    
And desperate condition    
   
We swear we swear    
To always be fair    
To be strong when it’s hardest    
when our minds are the darkest.    
Over things we love most    
Where our hearts are close    
Our pain we don’t regret    
But each other’s we’d never forget    
So through all of the thunder    
We vow to each other    
We swear we swear    
To never dare
