You said that I was your light, the light in the dark.
You said I was your smile, your colours and all.
But friends don’t lead each other in the darkness.
I am dead because of your harshness.

 

My words have disappeared for you.
Knife in my back and blood too.
Dizziness I feel, can’t see clearly..
You just killed me and I survived barely.

 

I don’t have an option besides you.
But now I would rather be alone than be with you.
You have asked me for your forgiveness.
I still remember your preciousness.

 

Sorry, but I can’t love you. 
Knife in my back and blood too.
Dizziness I feel can’t see clearly.
You just killed me, I survived barely.

 

Protect your new friends, leave me.
I don’t think you want to be with me.
I don’t blame you.
Better people do want to claim you.

 

You said I was more memorable than him.
I was the one you never could have.
You lied my friend, you lied.
But I can’t hate you though, I want to leave everything behind.

 

I was blind to your friendship, forgive me too.
Knife in my back and blood too.
Dizziness, I feel can’t see clearly.
You just killed me and I survived barely.

 

My wound is still fresh though.
I don’t know because for me you don’t show.
But I will be forever by your side.
I forgive you, dear friend, I do.
