~~~~Empty Hope~~~~
I'm surrounded by people I though were my friends
They saw me through pain, but will it ever end?
I've found happiness with someone I love
but even that cannot be enough
They seem to think that I only need one person
and there can't be room for more than *that one*
But what can I do when she's not here
and I need to talk or have some fun
Something seems to be wrong but I don't know what
People have visited then they're gone
Without a word, no goodbye
It hurt so much I nearly cried
It's hard to believe you can be alone with *friends* around
But all weekend they've not made a sound
No Hello, How are you? That¡¯s nice
just silence.
Do they realize that it just makes the pain worse?
They probably won't even understand this verse (or verses)
won¡¯t understand that I feel so empty
Life's so hard with no friends around me
yet they're there. But not there.
A paradox? Maybe
Maybe not.
Maybe they're just not my friends any more.
I just wish they'd talked to me.
If I ignored them I didn't know.
If that was the case I wish they'd said so
But now they've gone and I won't see them again
Oh well, so much for them being friends.
