BACK THEN

Through the music
and the parties
through the ditching
and the tardies
you were always there
when i needed you
when i needed someone
just to talk to
through the homework
and teachers
through confession
with the preachers
i was always there
just for you
when you needed
someone to talk to
through the crying
and the fights
through the days
and long nights
you were always there
being my best friend
when i think about
us back then
through the tears
that have fallen
through the pain
and name calling
i was always here
being your best friend
when i think about
us back then
