The Promise Ring

Letters To The Far Reaches

The Promise Ring


Flickering on, sad to see the season 
Come and gone away 
My black-eyed friends couldn't stay 
I'm afraid 

Now I'm left with a mess 
I'm way too overdressed for casual guests in time 
They've all always got to be leaving 
All the long long times 

Sometimes we fight 
And I don't treat my stomach right 
Every night 
It hurts 
and I don't know what's worse 
the eyes or words. 

Flickering on, sad to see the season
Come and gone away
My black-eyed friends couldn't stay
My black-eyed friends couldn't stay
My black-eyed friends couldn't stay
