When I told them, blank stares
But I heard behind my back
"He knows" - they pointed at my only friend
But no one cared to ask
Me - It seemed like he had friends to tell
That would go with him through hell
Those that never cared to help
me, or even listen.
When I was weak, no one reached an arm
but did I extend mine?
I must have forgotten. I wish I had.
Today, they apologize
Don't you think it's too late?

When I was weak, no one reached an arm

I must have forgotten. I wish I had.
Today, they apologize
Don't you think it's too late?
