They always tell us..
A true friend will like you for 
who you are 
That they'll never leave you in 
the dark 
They say true friends are the 
ones that stick around when 
you've falling down
There your walking stick when 
you've gone blind
Your conscious when you've 
lost your mind
Lost direction in life
True friends are always there to 
help you find your way
They never say goodbye or find 
a reason to stop caring
And tearing your heart to 
pieces 
Would be the least of your 
worries because a true friend 
couldn't bare seeing you 
broken and dirty
 They wouldn't feel worthy if 
you felt worthless
They. Would be colored purple 
and blue
They. would be broken and 
bruised  
Because a true friend would be 
honored to be your smile
To stay a while when everyone 
else is walking away
They would be your reason to 
move forward everyday
To keep moving towards your 
dreams 
No matter how hard life may 
seem
There the ones that tell you to 
listen to your heart 
And set everything else apart 
from what you love 
From what you want to be
There the ones that tell you 
Without dark days we wouldn't 
know what love is
That without tragic times we 
would never understand 
happiness
And in response I'm blessed to 
say this...
 Without you I would've never 
found true friendship. 
I would've never understood 
any of this
I would've never found the 
strength to follow my dreams 
and make the best of everyday 
And with that I thank you for 
everything 
You've helped make things a 
little clearer 
You've helped me realize how 
to dream a little bigger
And I only wish I could 
exchange the favor of 
everything you've done for me
But all I can get out is thank 
you for opening my eyes to all 
that I've never been able to 
see
