Friends, oh friends Where did you draw that line? We're shuffled around, bagged up and shelved And somehow that's just fine You claimed you'd help me when I needed it And now I'm suffering is this what you meant? You pushed me away, scared to take action While this burden rolled down, gaining traction
I spiraled down, cracking to the core Empty bottles of pills all sprawled out on the floor You grew more distant while I tried to reach out Plaguing my mind with these crushing waves of doubt I expected more and I was let tragically down As my problems spread and gained all of this renown
I was broken, I was battered and sore When did helping, become such a chore But I forgave you, for all of your faults It just hurt me, to watch this friendship halt You preach about helping by noticing the signs But when I was apparent you just ignored mine Now years have passed and we've grown up We don't talk but that's good enough Please dont feel sorry, for the things that you did I hold no grudge, for we were just kids
I wrote this more as a song but figured I'd share it anyway. It's about some times I went through during/right after high school.
