When you don't have friends,
When you are successful and you win,
When things you do, go your way,
Is also when so-called friends go astray!!

When you do have money and
they do come around,
When you are suddenly broke and
they're no where to be found,

All you wanted was
a friend to the end, but
All in return, you just
got people that pretend!!

You're the type of
person that'll go all in,
to lend a helping hand,
to a so-called dear friend,

to bend over backwards and
to try help them through, but
you could only do so much,
what more can you do???

Then THEY GET MAD and
START FEELING ALL BLUE,
"I THOUGHT YOU WERE MY FRIEND!!!"
YOU'RE ****,
YOU'RE WORTHLESS,
I CONFIDED IN YOU!!!,

You BETRAYED and DEGRADED ME,
JUST OUT HERE HAVING FITS,
THEY FEEL You're NOT A TRUE FRIEND
BUT A HYPOCRITE,
FROM A FRIEND TO FOE,
TIME TO LET THEM GO!!!

I can't believe you did this,
SOME FRIEND YOU ARE!!,
YOU USE TO BE COOL, BUT
NOW, YOU THINK YOU'RE A STAR!!

I'LL FORGIVE YOU RIGHT NOW,
I WILL NEED TIME TO MEND
AS FAR AS THIS FRIENDSHIP,
THIS FRIENDSHIP HAS TO END!!!

When you don't have friends
When things just aren't the same
When you did me wrong and
you're the one to BLAME,

YOU HAVE NO FRIENDS, and
THEY HAVE DONE YOU WRONG!!!
YOU HAVE A FRIEND IN JESUS,
THROUGH THESE WORDS BE STRONG!!!

Every day I die a certain way,
My sky is isn't infinite needless to say,
But under a sky you live,
That's not abandoned and astray,
The stars are for you to perceive,
In the horror of night skies darkness,
In darkness I grieve,
My God is different,
Mine is indifferent,
Not a friend nor a foe.

She once held my face like I was her world,
Now her words cut deep, like daggers unfurled.
She looks at me now with disdain in her eyes,
What was once treasured, now she despises.

I see stuff sometimes, each one like a blade,
Saying this situation makes her spirit fade.
Not from the place or somewhere, but from me, I know—
A reminder of the love she let go.

A person who sees me a disdain, needs to run far away,
That every corner of a place brings her dismay.
But it's not the streets, it’s what she can’t bear,
The ghost of who I was still hanging there.

I feel it all—the whispers, the weight,
The way a person rewrites love into hate.
That silence screams louder than any blow,
Crushing the heart that once made me glow.
Words left unspoken. This is a creation on a muddled mind.

Hey, would you like to be friends, or
At least play pretend and
Have discussions that pass lifeless
Like a leaf being pushed by the winds.

You could even keep my shirt at your crib,
So years later you can forget
Whose even it is. Like remembering
Which kid drew this scribble
Hung up on the fridge.

Man, all these frayed connections are
Dimming the lights in this decrepit
Building. One huff and puff
Could turn this structure to rubble dust.

I have no mind to wink or blink
An eye, at one word half *** replies, unless
It reads goodbye. Tired of tap dancing
On the precipice of caring, or
Not caring less.

there's no need to be alone
so long as someone wants you
no reason to be sad
so long as there's happiness to be had
not for you

not a need to be afraid
unless you live with your fears
one track one line, a straightaway
only left to shift the gears
not for you

this machine
this marvel of a beast
a prize itself
but not for you

maybe we held each other too close
which made us now too loose.

maybe we became too dependent,
that made us now feel indifferent.

we can pretend this is easy,
but how long will we both feel weary?

"How much do you really care?"
"How much do you really wanna know?"
"Badly"

lights cigarette " Well...let me tell you"

You, could, have the worst day and I'd laugh in your face
Tell you I told you that joy was erased
Look to the sky and be blinded by light...
-ning as it crashes down, cuts through the night!

Hell's gates could open, and in you would fall
And with all your screams, I'd still feel **** all!
You could walk off the flat earth and into the void
I'd carry on normal, and not paranoid!

Turned into ashes, blasted to bits
Drowned in a lake, in my face your neck splits
Spray me with blood, I won't feel a thing,
I'd lap at the crimson, thanks for the feed!

Death welcomes all, where life may not want to
The curtains will fall, and then you'll see the truth
The truth of it is, I only care enough to tell you
To yell or to whisper, I won't mourn when they bury you!
Conform that face to my fist, please
