You're in a bad place.
You are, and I know it.
And I really want to help you, but I'm not sure if I should do it.
It's just that, talking to you,
It makes me so tired.
Having these exchanges
They exhaust me,
Leave me stressed and wired.

You exhaust me.
And I'm realizing this now
But you're my friend and you need me
I want to be there for you but how?

Boundaries

That's a word that I hear a lot lately
And I don't know how to set them. But if I did?
With you I'd use them daily
You manipulate me
And I really don't like it
I told myself I'd just ignore it
But I'm sick of my silence

I want you to stop
You aren't even my friend
A friend wouldn't do this
I know it has to end
But

The guilt.
What should I do?
Cause to me you're a friend
And I know that I'll miss you

I want so badly to help
But I want to get better
It's killing me to try with you
I'd be best to just forget her
