Letting Go

Tell me why does friendship end
Then you got to pretend
Like everything's alright
When it's a mess
My father told me
That it's something that leaves
But I didn't believe in it at first

To the old friends that I left
To the back ones that I had
The ones that were my closest;
To the ones that already left.
To the people that walked past
Thinking I had no friends,
I do just one or two
But it's okay

I wonder if it's always there
Waiting by the door
I let someone new in, where
Nobody knows
Curious to always stare
Sitting on the floor
Thinking nobody will hear
But I don't know

I'm always open to new friends
But in the end, they leave
I wonder if it all depends
On what they perceive
How can you let someone in
Knowing what to achieve
But all I want to know
Is why do people leave

Tell me why does friendship end
Then you got to pretend
Like everything's alright
When it's a mess
My mother told me
That it's something that leaves
But I never wanted to believe

To the people in my life
That I thought about day and night
Is it possible I'll see you again?
To the people that walked past
Thinking I had no friends,
I do, just one or two
But it's okay!
