This is no ordinary housewife! I've been playing guitar since age 12(sorry, won't say how long ago that was!)and have been writing songs for about as long.It's only been for the last 5 years that I've actually been sharing them with people.

Lyrics
You keep saying you’ll do better I say no way, not again, no never You say you love me, I keep you sane It’s just a lie, it’s a cruel game But you always have the final word And I’m always here, it’s so absurd. Chorus: Empty promises and empty threats You make your move but hedge your bets My head says no, but the heart forgets Just empty promises I’ve been up all night, just can’t sleep Thinking about how your words and how they cut so deep Wonder where I ever went so wrong But truth be told I’ve known it all along The more I give the more you need You tear me up just to watch me bleed Bridge: You’re falling, falling down into A place where no one can get close to you Your sadness clings just like a vine And wraps all around your heart and mine It’s not that I had never learned That karma given is karma earned Trust that’s broken is trust destroyed And it kills the love that we enjoyed And leaves in its place tears and regrets And empty promises and empty threats.
