From the day I met you
I have wondered
when the time would come
for it to be the right time
or when time would run out
I knew it couldn't last forever
Friendship is better than empty space
But you didn't want any
you don't even have the courage to say it
to my face
I prayed to God
to give me strength
not to denounce everything
in your face
He has at least given me that
And by you hiding you
I used to wonder what life would be like
when your gone
It's pretty obvious
I'd have the chance
to be myself
and not try to make you happy
by hurting myself
I want you to be happy
and if that means I need to disappear
then so be it
I'll be here if you ever need it
But with your confidence
I'm sure you won't
I knew it was too good to be true
It had to end sometime
But I didn't know how
I know I need you
as much as you need me⁠
⁠—none⁠
I thought I meant something to you
I tried to ride it out with you
Something from nothing
turned everything to nothing
I'll disappear
like everything we didn't have
I guess I was never there
It's ok
It won't make a difference
I know you don't care
and you never will
What's a ride or die...
When there's nothing
to ride it out on?
Can't be gone
if it was never
I saw something in you
I didn't see in anyone else
I'd swear on my life
but even though facts prove I do;
I guess I don't have one
I expected someone to leave me,
but I'd never guess it'd be you
You killed me with my own knife
It's an illusion
my life isn't of my choosing
but if it's an illusion,
who's to say you're real?
and not of my imagination
but even my imagination
couldn't imagine someone as fake as you
Empty space
is all that's replaced you
but you don't exist
so i guess i've been empty all along
So, here's to our friendship
that we didn't have
and cheers to the many more
that you never will
Treat them the same way you treated me
you'll see
What it never was
is what it could be
