You see me everyday..
You might not pay attention, but i'm there...
Do you remember those days we used to play together...
Yea, those were fun, now i watch from a distance, with sometimes a shove..
We were close you and i...
I had your back you had mine..
Do you remember?
That was until the day you met them.
They welcomed you, drew you in, made you feel like you were on top didn't they?
As for me i bet you dont remember what happened next..
Constant tease everyday, same jokes, new words..
Bruises appeared same time as the days passed..
Do you remember?
Constant shove against a locker..
Cruel looks, Hate filled lyrics to their insulting song, it wsa written just for me..
You never noticed, and if you ever did, you just looked away...
Do you remember?
No one could ever be able to tell how close we used to be..
Before you were my bestfriend, the only one i had..
Now you morphed into a wretched clone..
Your so called friends chased me home one day...
I barely made it, that was the last day you saw me..
Do you remember?
I yelled, but no one came..
I called and no one answered..
I still had a glimpse of hope for the good old days..
But that day...
Do you remember?
Too bad I don't either..
If you are even reading this, you know i'm gone now..
The loneliness, the fear, the torment, the abandonment...
Well, you get the picture...
Do you remember now?
I wish i could have said Goodbye --- but that was just too hard...
I'm free now, no more worries, no more fears...
I'm free now..
--Till we meet again--
