Broken Promise

Is this heart that's going numb
All a part of growing up
Search for answers that never come
Pray to a God that never cared enough

Holding out for better days
But all the pain just stays the same
When did this dream become a nightmare
An endless road that's going nowhere
Feels like I'm going nowhere

Will it get better when I'm older
Will I ever stop the world from caving in
Sleepless nights are getting colder
So sick of feeling like a stranger in my skin

I'm still waiting for the light after the darkness
Losing hope for a new life to begin
Maybe fairytales are anything but honest
And happiness is just a broken promise

Now my soul is wearing thin
Left to die with innocence
Climbing castles made of sand
Reaching for anyway to feel again
Oh, I just wanna feel again

Will it get better when I'm older
Will I ever stop the world from caving in
Sleepless nights are getting colder
So sick of feeling like a stranger in my skin

I'm still waiting for the light after the darkness
Losing hope for a new life to begin
Maybe fairytales are anything but honest
And happiness is just a broken promise

When I was young
I didn't think that I could feel
So alone
Now I'm caught in the undertow

Will it get better when I'm older
Will I ever stop the world from caving in
Sleepless nights are getting colder
So sick of feeling like a stranger in my skin

I'm still waiting for the light after the darkness
Losing hope for a new life to begin
Maybe fairytales are anything but honest
And happiness is just a broken promise

Is just a broken promise

Is this heart that's going numb
All a part of growing up
