You were once here. Giving each other support through the years We knew our boundries Gave each other space Distance didn't deter us We continued where we left off. You see me I see you In the years we have changed Our lives moved forward Friendship is blind Didn't I see it? My burden to carry Was it real for you? It was for me. But you were my drug You hurt me Did I know you? Maybe so, but closed my eyes Did I not support you Agree with you Comfort you There for you I told you my secrets You told them to others The destruction began When I opened my eyes To look into each person's eyes Your family Your friends Do they look through their eyes at me during my worst times I choke now on the secrets I spoke to you Gag on the trust given freely Ashamed for doing it again and again Hollow knowing that trust and friendship don't go together You turned me into a gossiping school girl Eye for an eye Spill my secrets, I'll spill yours But I have honor With this I put the needle and spoon down Not waiting for you to spin it to my fault You became a wisp of a memory Fading away
