I don't understand people

We mean one thing
But say the opposite
And when we do say
The truth we are told
It's a lie
We change our minds

Change

I've ran out of
Tears to shed for you

No matter how much I'be tried
I can no longer cry for you

I've cut my hair
And have changed my style

Maybe if I knew you still cared
It would've been different

Change

I haven't written in awhile
I haven't had the time to reflect
On what's happened to me
To my surroundings

I've met new people
And lost old friends

I found myself

Change

When I was a child
My grandfather always played
Oldies music

Michael Jackson
Elvis
Frank Sinatra
I had a diverse of a taste in music
As my family

As I grew older
I found myself listening
To rock more

My friends are no longer surprised

Change 

Today I cried
But not in front of you
I was shaking
On the verge of tears
You knew I was scared

In my mind I begged you
To help me
To protect me
Like you used to

And you didn't
The moment you left
"I've never felt so alone,"

My friends saved me
From running
I wanna run so bad
But they keep me strong

Change

I shouldn't have cried
I don't wanna be a burden

Tomorrow will be better
