A Pricey Package Of Friends

Looking for 1, found a package of 6
Beyond expectations, but how awesome it is
"what's the price?" I say
"none, just take it"
      Fabulous

Never figured I'd have to pay
I took care, I shared, never tried to bring them despair
But one tried to prove herself pricey, prove herself needy
Some were moody, some overtime drifted away
Then, returned, to get their way
Felt used, that's the only thing I can say
But the package came with no return address
No uno reverse card
All I ever did was stay
That's all I'd ever do

At least found two real things for sure
The package wasn't a total fraud
Got things on my mind
These two would keep me going on
And then come along... Two more
Although, I'd never be sure

Just one thing I can say
When you're with me...
Please don't fake
That's something I can't take
And then I can't erase you away

A player at life
Play with people's hearts
Toy with our emotions
It'd never take you far

Now shut your mouth, Let's part ways
I don't like you... You leave a bad aftertaste

Wipe away those tears
They're all a show
Don't try to convince me...
I've never been the best at letting go
