Lets be better friends

I met you on the first day of middle school
I was petty, young, such a damn fool
I befriended you and look what happened to me
You changed me into someone I didn't want to be

Our first year as friends was relatively good
We treated each other like real friends should
You listened to my likes, wants and worries
If anything went wrong, we work it out and say sorry

But by the second year things took a wrong turn
The fact that they placed us in different clases was a concern
We grew apart but tried to keep in touch
We still spent time together though not much

You started to change and I was annoyed
Everything was about you like I was some kinda toy
You told me what to do in your house and at mine
At this point it was obvious things werent fine

This year is out third year and things are worse then ever
Sometimes I wish I'd never met you, NEVER!
I know I'm not perfect, and I'm not trying to be
But all I'm doing is trying to make you see

I'm sick of rearanging my plans to suit you
Quit telling me who I should me, what to do
All this shit about loosening up, It hurts
This is who I am, from now on I'm putting me first!

I'm sick of hearing "can i call you back" seven times a week
Facts are you never do, backstabbing evil freak
You never make time for me and I've had just about enough
I thought we were friends, Where is the love?

For I am me, thats all I can be
If you can't accept that then just let me be
I have feelings too, they've been wounded by you
But I know I'm strong I will pull through (with or without you)

I have no hate or anger towards you
You're still my friend, I'll never forget you
I don't want you to change, just a bit of respect is fine
I want us to be best friends, time after time

Can we go back to the way we were
And get past all this shit that occurs
We were good friends, we still can be
Just a bit more effort from both you and me
