šµ we made promises in the dark “but light showed the cracks.”
[Verse 1]
we spoke like stars behind closed eyes
your hand in mine, no need for light
every word a whispered flame
safe from morning, safe from blame
[Pre-Chorus]
you smiled like you believed in always
i held my breath, afraid of someday
[Chorus]
we made promises in the dark
where shadows softened every scar
but light crept in — and truth attacked
what we thought was whole,
was full of cracks
still, i’d whisper love again
if it meant i could feel your hand
[Verse 2]
your laugh lived in my favorite songs
i played them loud when nights felt wrong
we danced in silence, barely real
but somehow that’s what made it feel
[Pre-Chorus]
you looked at me like i was home
how were we lost and still alone?
[Chorus]
we made promises in the dark
where even ghosts forgot the past
but morning came and pulled us back
the light revealed
the painted cracks
still, i’d break all rules again
just to hear you call me friend
[Bridge]
maybe love was never blind —
just kind enough to close its eyes
and maybe hearts don’t always last
but ours still beat
inside the past
[Final Chorus]
we made promises in the dark
too fragile for the morning's mark
the truth, it came, we couldn't act
but i'd relive it
with every crack
because you smiled, and i believed
even lies can help us breathe
[Outro]
we made promises in the dark
and that was real — at least to me

š¼️ Image Prompt (for 19:6 YouTube Thumbnail):
Create a cinematic and emotionally powerful Lu_Fi-style scene in a 19:6 aspect ratio. The setting is a dimly lit room with warm, golden string lights casting a soft glow. A couple stands facing each other — close, but not touching — silhouetted in the gentle darkness. Light from a rising sun breaks through a cracked window behind them, symbolizing truth and revelation, subtly highlighting fractures on the walls around them.
The atmosphere should feel dreamy, bittersweet, and quiet, with a focus on deep emotions, vulnerability, and the contrast between love’s warmth and its fragile reality. Use soft shadows, lens flares, and light particles to enhance the magical realism tone.
Include the song title in large, bold, clear text near the center-right:
"we made promises in the dark"
And just below in slightly smaller, but still bold text:
“but light showed the cracks.”
š Keep all four corners free of text or elements to allow space for channel logo and other uses.
Use a color palette of deep blues, warm ambers, and soft pastel highlights to match the Lu_Fi mood.
