I promise I won’t give in tonight.
For the pain is strong,
And the fight so long.
But I made you a promise,
A promise I must keep.
The want to bleed,
Wont’ leave.
But I must keep my promise,
So tonight no blood will be shed.
I'll throw the razor on the floor,
and I will try to go straight to bed.
To avoid temptation once more.
With you avoiding temptation is easy.
With you I won’t give up hope,
For only a moment I'm at peace.

Meh. This one didn't seem to flow as well. Still not bad, though.
