I saw him make so many mistakes
That broke her into pieces
And I remember you promised
She would never again be mistreated
And she wanted to believe
That you’d never break that vow
These days she worries when you leave
And what you’re doing now

This is why I don’t believe
In a happy ever after
Cause I have witnessed
I know the answer
It’s a no, it’s a goodbye
It’s a why try
Cause promises don’t mean much
After the passage of time

Well maybe you were sincere
Thought it would all work out
You said, “I won’t be like them”
You said, “I won’t let you down.”
But now you’re screaming
And smoking up in the bathroom
Throwing things at the
Ones who love you

This is why I don’t believe
In a happy ever after
Cause I have witnessed
I know the answer
It’s a no, it’s a goodbye
It’s a why try
Cause promises don’t mean much
After the passage of time

Take a look in the mirror
At the monster you’ve become
Everything you swore you’d never be
Have overcome
The sweet boy who promised to keep me safe
Who gave more that he would take
Now you’re screaming in my face

This is why I don’t believe
In a happy ever after
Cause I have witnessed
I know the answer
It’s a no, it’s a goodbye
It’s a why try
Cause promises don’t mean much
After the passage of time
