I no longer feel sad
When selfish people walk away
Instead I become numb
Each time that they don’t stay
In fact the ones that go
Don’t even turn to leave
Instead they take what they can
Until service is no longer in need
They will beam sunshine in repay
Throw bouquets of yellow roses
They’ll call it friendship in light of day
Avoiding confrontation and explosives
But when night comes and sky is dark
It’s much easier to conceal a selfish heart
And it doesn’t seem to matter
Where their loyalty resides
If they’re not the ones that walk away
Then they can stay and hide
And claim it’s not their fault when
A friendship burns and dies
