Do you remember when we met? Cuz I feel like it was so long ago; That you handed me that flyer And invited me to your show I thought it sounded stupid So I decided not to go But you didn't hold it against me And our friendship managed to grow Eventually you became my person The one that was always there You held me in my hardest moments And could always show me you care Even when things got rocky We knew how to work it out And it was only ever a matter of days Before a new level of friendship would sprout But lately things have started to change I feel that you don't have my back And though I'm trying hard to forgive I feel our friendship is starting to crack    You started to call me less and less                I've started to give up on you And then you just stopped coming by                  I've began to drift away        The worst part is you always defend             I don't want to put in the effort     All of the people who make me cry               On a street that's just one way        You never seize opportunities                I just don't have it in me anymore        To have me in your life                            To always be fighting for you    Then whenever we finally talk                  It should be this freaking lonely    We usually get into another strife              It shouldn't make me feel so blue And I'm not saying it's all your fault...    ....I'm not sure what went wrong I'm just not sure what to think...                 ...How we got so disconnected We just keep drifting apart...                               ...And you don't seem to care We are just SO out of sync...                                                  ...And I just feel dejected

I decided to try something a little different, and...I'm actually REALLY proud of how this turned out...and I don't say that very often. But I've been working on this for quite a while, and then figuring out how to get it to lay out (pretty much) the way I wanted took me extra time....and...it's not perfect....but basically, I am super proud of the result :) Hope you all like it too <3
