You're never there

I lied my life away
Faked happiness day to day
And where were you
You were never there

I'd drink my problems away
Killing myself from the inside out
But you were never there
Never caring
Never realizing your friend
Was slowly killing herself

You'd never realize
How bad it hurt
To know you were never there
You didn't care

I'd lie here
In my bed at night
Thinking about times
When I'd cry and you'd help

But not anymore
I swear you think you've
Outgrown you're old friends
But you are never here
When it counts the most

Everytime I'd cut
You'd tear up
Tell me you'd do it
To get me to stop
I couldn't take it then
But now I can't care
Because you don't either

You were never there
You never did care
So tell me now
Why should I

You may be older
You may have a job
But does that mean
Abandoning those who cared
Those who felt
Those who were there
When you needed them most

Put yourself in my shoes
See how I feel
To know that
You are never there
I don't care
You were never there
You are a fake
Not a friend
A fake

Don't waste my time now
Feel what I feel today
You'll never be there
I won't be here
Because I drank my problems away
And one is you
Thank you
