Beautiful eyes
Little lies
I've tried to help you
God knows how i've tried
Strong friends
Sticking around as the river bends
But I lost you in the rapids
and I sighed for this is how it ends
I found a song
It was for you but it was too long
The words I wrote no longer apply
How could I have been so wrong
I burned it
Along with a shirt in a fire pit
I tried to save you, I really did
But you left me in a dangerous fit
I tried to save you from this danger
But my mother said "You can't change her."
And we took different paths into the dark, my friend
I gave up, and now you're a stranger

Beautiful eyes
Little lies
I've tried to help you
God knows how i've tried
Strong friends
Sticking around as the river bends
But I lost you in the rapids
and I sighed for this is how it ends
I found a song
It was for you but it was too long
The words I wrote no longer apply
How could I have been so wrong

Along with a shirt in a fire pit
I tried to save you, I really did
But you left me in a dangerous fit
I tried to save you from this danger
But my mother said "You can't change her."
And we took different paths into the dark, my friend
I gave up, and now you're a stranger
It took a very long time to express this. She was my friend and I tried so hard to help her and she hurt me in return and then never spoke to me again even though I see her all the time. We just don't know each other anymore.
