Friends should share many things
Enjoy the highs
Comfort, when sadness decides to walk in
I'm often outside, looking in
The false face
Of friendship is what you are all wearing
I'm always the last to ever know
When things happen
Snippets of your lives, to me you will throw
I'm always a mere second thought
This hurts
Between the nets of guilt and anger, I'm caught
I've tried to remain a loyal friend
I really have
But has this road now come to an end?
The balance of friendship, is just not fair
You've tipped it
I'm left dangling and alone in the air
When one of us took ill, I never knew
A friend nearly died
No one thought to tell me, not one of you
Then I hear my friends dad has died, still the same
I was last to know
I could not believe it was happening again
It's all leaving a bad taste in my mouth
What do I do?
When all I want to do is really shout
I'm here feeling guilty and torn
Very let down
Should friendship leave you feeling so forlorn?
So whilst you're all at the funeral now
I'm here alone
Before the altar of emptiness I bow
You will all probably never know, how I truly feel
I'll remain quiet
Whilst more of my friendship you'll steal
