Old Friend

Like the closest of sisters
And the most identical of twins
We were each other's shadows
Always one beside the other

We vowed upon a rose
To stay forever close
You said you'd stay near
Despite all your fears

Tears, anger, fear and glee
We were both so wild and free
Our fates they were tightly bound
Together we would always be found

But what was I supposed to say,
When he took your heart away?
When he took you away from me,
I had thought we were meant to be

They said that one day all birds haveto fly,
Even the most beautiful roses have to die
Just like the spring breeze
You'll be gone in a wheeze

Well I guess it's over
The promise of forever
Though you'll slowly drift away
I pray that you won't be led astray

Because one day he'll leave you
It'll seem like the world's against you
When it seems like one big mess
Just know it's just one big test

And if you feel like you're dying
Just know I'll be right here waiting
To start the clock that was frozen
Since the last time we've spoken
