My Ex-Friend

When I needed you
Why weren't you there
Where were you to stop the pain
The pain you yourself created
I once thought of you as my friend
You got closer than anyone else has
It was a mistake to let you in
TO have loved you like I did
Why would you do this to me
I was always there when you needed me
Always there to stop the pain
Why isn't it the same for you
Why couldnt you be here when I needed you most
Why can't you stop the spain
You were supposed to be my best friend
Even more than that
You were supposed to be family
But now you are nothing
You will never be in my life again
