i made promises
that im trying to keep

you ask me to try
and you say
you know i can do it

but all i feel as if i cant
but i hear those words
and i keep trying

as i falter
you have picked me up
others have also

but now youre gone
but for some reason
youre not really gone

its like youre still here
telling me i can do it
so i keep trying

and faltering
youre not here to see it
but yet i still know

you see whats happening
and you know i can make it
even thou i feel
