Drop By Drop

I keep it all inside of me
I hold it in
Like a breath
Waiting to come out
And turn into smoke

The promise I waited for
that I made for myself
It's vanishing now
Drop by drop

Either I let myself down
Or finally learned what promises hold

That they matter the most
the moment they're told

I keep it all inside of me
I hold it in

And I bought myself some time
