Say Goodbye
You said you are my friend,
But you stabbed me in the back
I sit here in my blood,
Wondering if you will ever come back.
As I suffer,
The days go by.
I'm wondering what is this.
Why do I feel so dry?
We once use to be happy,
But now it's all disappeared.
This feeling of pressure
Is slowly getting near.
My suffering increases
As the days go by,
And I'm sitting here wondering
Why you said goodbye?
How can you know me?
When I barely even knew myself.
How can you laugh with me?
When inside I am crying.
I told you once, how I felt.
Your ice-cold heart didn't even melt.
You didn't believe any word I said.
You'd be surprised when I end up dead.
Every coin has two sides,
just like you had two faces
How can you talk about me?
When you don't know the real me.
How can you see me?
When this image is a fake, a lie.
For you were like the rain,
you came and passed by
You never like anything I do.
Even though most of it is for you.
My "sometimes" best friend
Who is supposed to be with me until the end.
But you leave me all the time.
And never seem to see me behind.
Struggling to stop you,
I groan and moan as I chase after you,
Hurrying to please you.
You never see my feelings.
Only your own.
This makes me want to moan.
But this, you've already known.
You already knew that you walked away as I cried,
you turned your back on my tears.
To imagine you capable of such things,
A monstrous idea indeed.
I trusted you as you broke me.
I was there when you needed me,
But when I needed you, where were you?
Pretending to be someone you aren't,
To impress your "friends."
For you are as dark,
Dark as the magical, mysterious midnight
For which Lightning dances across the night sky
I guess you will never know all I did,
All I've done, simply for you.
You forget I know the real you.
I know the person that hides beneath.
I know things about you that others don't.
Don't worry. Your secrets are safe with me.
I won't betray your trust. As you did to me.
You were my friend.
Alas, that mistake no longer lives.
Only the pain in my heart shows its existence.
I wish I knew what happened,
For you to do as you did.
But I guess that's one secret,
I'll never be privileged to know.
