***

A promise was made
Between the two of us
You said we'd get through this together
But I found myself walking alone
I looked back and saw you
Smiling and talking
To the peole you just met
Along the way
You didn't even look,
didn't even say a word
I never said anything
However, I smiled at you
At least, when I'm gone
You'll still have friends beside you
Because when I left,
I had no one but myself.
