Many People

I’ve known those who say they’ll be there, until it matters when they just don’t care, And you realise they use you Like you for what you do Under the illusion they do the same too They let you down aren’t around when It’s your celebration But when it’s their day they have expectation You give time and attention help them regain direction But when you’re in need they find a deflection They feed ego, they lie and let down they are weak and feeble they are a clown They’ll make you bad so they can look good They’re quick to get mad Gloat as Robin Hood They are inflicting Then play the victim They do little for others But are always owed favours They tell you a fact They were your savour But they give no time Just them on their mind There is a coldness inside When you look in their eyes Tell blatant excuses Use you for your uses I’ve known many people That are called losers

no doubt, people will let you down. And I think it's because as you said people (myself included) "are weak and feeble." You have such an authentic voice. :) ~ps
