My Closest Friend
I’m sitting here alone in my bubble
That was created for me a long, long time ago
I didn’t think the story was true
But now I see
What’s really happening around me
Am I just not opening up?
Letting chances take me on the fly
I stand and sit
Moving through the world
As the people cry
It’s not like I’ve never cried before
But a part of me is lost
Whenever I do
So the pain I feel is gone
Until I cry again
And that’s it I don’t feel revenge
I look at myself as if I’m broken
Wouldn’t you?
When you see someone grieve over love
Or the loss of one
Where I stay stoned and passive
To this emotion that massive
People laugh and people cry
Do they ever ask themselves why?
I do and it’s not fun
When you find out you’re the reason
People hide from this pain
In so many ways
Latent with laughter
Buried in burning
And cloaked in cuts
But that pain penetrates us all
Just matters how far we fall
Give in and lose
Leaving life slowly behind
Watching as your life fades
And for a minute you think what if
What if you had waited?
What if someone had called?
What if aid had gotten there after all?
But those thoughts are simply what ifs
Ones we will never know the end
Cause they were uttered as last words
By one of my closest friends
