At first I believed the lies
That you were my friend.
You took away my anxiety
You took away my pain
A feeling of numb overwhelmed
You took away the good too
You took away my laughter
Happiness, joy, and solace
When I chose to leave you
A hole formed in my soul
You took part of me with you
The tears flowed and cries echoed
When I chose to leave you
So much of me did you take
I lost my identity
When I left you

At first I believed the lies
That you were my friend.
You took away my anxiety
You took away my pain
A feeling of numb overwhelmed
You took away the good too
You took away my laughter
Happiness, joy, and solace
When I chose to leave you
A hole formed in my soul
You took part of me with you
The tears flowed and cries echoed
When I chose to leave you
So much of me did you take
I lost my identity
When I left you
