Tear me apart,
Wash me away.
Tell me that you were
never here to stay.

Wear me down,
Make me sad.
Tell me it was all
Because of my bad.

Ignore me for weeks,
Pretend it's alright.
Tell me it was just
Nothing despite...

The looks you gave me,
The anxiety you caused me,
The uncertainty you sent me,
The distance you created between us.

I guess I'm alright,
I guess I'll be fine now.
Go home and pretend
That we never got in a fight now.

So I just sit here,
It won't be the same anymore.
Try to mend things
But it's eating away my core.

I guess I'm an apple, or maybe a pare,
But I know for sure I could never compare
To the other people you know. 
It's all different now so...

Carry on,
Let the distance flow between us.
Know you were wrong
And know that we will never repeat this.

Take a breath,
Let the smoke into your chest.
Breath it out and realize
That we were never best

Friends.
