Trinkets to Ashes

Why does everything move so fast?
everyone just wants to move on and have a blast.

all my life, i wanted to stay;
cherishing just each moment before they go away.

every good that unravels,
it always had to burn and turn into gravel.

why do i always have to be the one
who stays until everyone else is gone?

why can't everything just be?
Like my friends in elementary.

But then again, they're like everyone else...
Everyone who said the they'd be with me even when I'm in hell.

So what's the point of those fancy friendship bracelets?
When they're all just some damn lying trinkets!

Don't give me those colourful ropes or swear "friends forever",
Just tell me that you'll cherish our friendship forever.
