My Friend?


How do you call yourself my friend? After you laugh at me uncontrollably It wasn't laughing with me No, it was laughing at me How do you call yourself my friend? I'm sorry I'm not perfect but last I checked, nor were you, I know my names not clean I'm sorry I'm not perfect. The least I deserve is respect What did I do to you? I was myself, not a fake Sure I may not fit in, The least I deserve is respect. You don't know me Please don't act like you do You don't see out my eyes You don't live in my shoes You don't know me This can only make me stronger I am the one to turn away I'll keep it to myself like I do everything else This can only make me stronger Just wait Wait till you need me one day one day I'll be free free from the childish games Just wait I don't need you So please run along Why are you still here? You are already out of my mind I don't need you It's a new season Which means meeting new people People that will be true They can be my friends It's a new season I hope you see: I'm sorry I'm not perfect The least I deserve is respect You don't know me This can only make me stronger Just wait I don't need you It's a new season I hope you see
