Promise

I couldn't wipe every tear
I couldn't always lend an ear
I couldn't kill every fear
I did not bring you cheer
every time, like I promised

I know I did not
I tried, I could not
I'm sorry I forgot
I tried and I fought
and I will, like I promised

Hurts:(
But it's not possible to do live and still do all that. It's important to remember the "trying" part.
