You've changed in so many ways
maybe even in more ways than you like to believe
she's helped change you, you know
you're no longer the friend
you'd like to believe yourself to be
you can't hear in my voice when something's wrong
you can't look at my face and see past this fake smile
the one you knew at one time was a lie
the fake smile you took and replaced with the real thing
you're arms are no longer the arms
that are always open to me
you're reassuring words
are no longer directed towards me and my pain
but you know i've changed in many ways too
i no longer take the crap you shove towards me
i no longer allow you to get to me
i dont allow myself to cry from the pain you cause me
i no longer get kicked down and not get back up
i no longer let someone who i loved
but didnt love me back, control my life
