You Promised Me Forever

Breakups always come with a chorus of voices trying to make you feel better. Friends, family, even strangers will say the same things: “time heals,” “you’ll be okay,” “you’ll move on,” or “they don’t know what they lost.” But when your world has been turned upside down, those words do not land. They feel like clichés that cannot touch the reality of what you are going through.

That is the heart of “You Promised Me Forever.”
This song is not about finding the silver lining right away. It is about being stuck in the heaviness, staring at the wreckage, and trying to process how something that was supposed to last forever ended so suddenly. It is about waiting for a call that never comes, replaying memories, and wondering what went wrong when no answers ever arrive.

The chorus makes that frustration plain:
“So don’t tell me time will heal,
And don’t say I’ll be okay.
Don’t tell me I’ll move on,
It doesn’t feel that way.”

We wanted this song to speak for anyone who has heard those platitudes and thought: “That is easy for you to say.” Because sometimes what you need is not advice. What you need is to be understood, to have someone admit that your pain is real and it hurts like hell.

“You Promised Me Forever” is our way of putting that feeling into words and music. It is a reminder that grief has no timeline, heartbreak has no shortcuts, and some promises, once broken, leave a mark that lasts much longer than anyone will admit.
