You know nothing
About me or anyone
You've hurt and used
Not even those
You call your friends
'Cause that's how
Selfish you are
Self-centered and fake
I remained calm
Silent all these years
Smiled in front of you
Laughed with you
Looked you in the eye
But my guards are up
Not letting you in
But keeping you out
You never really cared
All you did was lie
Talk behind my back
Our backs and hide
You thought it wasn't big
'Cause you thought
It was all fun
To make someone
Your laughing stock
Whatever your reasons were
This time I won't let you
Hurt me or them again
Let alone see
Your shadows
Dark as your souls
Tainted our heart of gold
Washed out our lights
I will never forget
You were our nightmare
Now I ask you
To stay away
I let myself too
Don't come my way
'Cause I may not be
As calm as the sea
The day our paths
Will cross you'll go
Bow down before me
For now stay away
