They were never your friends!

 

They were never your friends

Who talked like shit behind you,

Who mocked you in front of everyone.

 

They were never your friends

When you wanted to say something

But were left unheard

And dominated by them.

 

They were never your friends

Your good wishes made them angry,

Your good thoughts made them jealous.

\'You\'—the whole concept—

Was just a lie for them.

 

They were never your friends

The way you cared,

The way you made them laugh,

The way you made them feel special—

In return, you never got anything.

 

They were never your friends

They never thought about your feelings,

They never wanted to hear you,

They just used you like anything.

 

They were never your friends

They smiled at your face

But rolled their eyes the moment you turned,

They took your kindness as weakness,

Your loyalty as something to exploit.

 

They were never your friends

Because friends don’t hide knives behind their backs,

Friends don’t cheer when you fall,

Friends don’t dim your light just to shine.

 

They were never your friends.
