Karma

So many friends
So little time
So many friends
None want to be mine
I pretend that I'm fine

Seeing them pass me by
So cruel and cold it makes me cry
I tried to say hello but all I heard is
Good-bye
I wonder how often they've lied

I'm sick of all their games
And being called all those names
Names that made me weep
Crumbling in a broken heep
Begging my mother
Don't make me go back
I won't survive another attack

I don't know who to trust
To think of all the hurt the've thrust
In my heart
In my soul
My entire being
To insult the me they're seeing

I've been burned so many times
In more than one way
Right now I"ve just one more thing to say
Karma's coming at you the least expected day!
