Track 11
Promised and Broken
Resonance at the Edge
Player Promised and Broken
Track Notes
A bittersweet look at technical debt and personal promises that quietly fracture. The melody lingers like an apology you keep rewriting.
Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The specs looked perfect, the promise was clear
"Every feature works; no need to fear"
But now it's broken, the lines don't align
I'm left here stranded, with deadlines on the line
[Pre-Chorus]
And if I called, would they hear me scream?
Or would they just ignore the dream?
[Chorus]
Promised and broken, the silence deafening
We hold the pieces, but they won't do a thing
Lost in the chaos of what they swore would be
A ghost in the system is all they left for me
[Verse 2]
I comb through forums, the answers are void
The echoes mock me, my patience destroyed
Every demo, a scripted lie
No support, just excuses that drift and die
[Pre-Chorus]
And if I fought, would they care to see?
The cost of their duplicity?
[Chorus]
Promised and broken, the silence deafening
We hold the pieces, but they won't do a thing
Lost in the chaos of what they swore would be
A ghost in the system is all they left for me
[Bridge]
I build around the broken edge
Patch the pieces, bridge the wedge
With every failure, we rise once more
Turning their silence into our roar
[Chorus 2]
Promised and broken, but we won't stay down
We'll find a way to wear the crown
In every failure, resilience is born
From ashes, we'll rebuild the form
[Outro]
And now we know, their words are dust
In ourselves, we place our trust
Promised and broken, but we stand tall
Turning their failure into our call
