New Moon

I used to bask in your moonlight

You glowed through my darkest night

I knew from the start I didn't deserve you

And now you hide your light


I guess I got what I deserved

I guess I took you for granted

For now you're just my new moon

And I'll be chasing your shadow


You know they don't love you like I do

All those other distant stars

Maybe I flickered the dimmest

But at least what I shone was true


I guess I got what I deserved

I guess I took you for granted

For now you're just my new moon

And I'll be chasing your shadow


Wait, have I been wrong all along?

Can you only shine if I do too?

I never meant to let you down, we'll shine together now

Just please, come back to me


Back then, I had what I deserved

Back then, I took you for granted

Back then, you were my new moon

Things are different now


Like the last one, not from my personal experiences, but still not bad - I think. If anything, it's more about friends of mine leaving me for other, more popular friend groups than anything else. Still, maybe you got something from it.
