When is it time to let a friend go? Well, I suppose that is up to you Maybe you need to let yourself grow To begin something anew While it may at first hurt Remember that you did not desert It's time to let go when it feels like eggshells Like wandering through a minefield When your mind swells Using the shield that you now wield Yes, at first you'll have pain But don't let it drive you insane Sometimes people simply grow apart Especially if their views blind them from fact Just follow your own heart If a small view disagreement let's the bond be cracked Remember, you did nothing wrong Why this is now your own song This was a long time coming It was bound to end Like the pages in a book you'll be thumbing But your heart you'll continue to lend

Walk Though It May Hurt
