Friendship Stop

I remember when
I remember when I felt like crying
I remember when
I remember when, my soul was trying, to carry on

Back in the days when
Words were said
To sew into your heart, like a needle and thread
You're not good enough
To be on this team
It's just you're not quite us, so stay lonely
Stay lonely, stay lonely, stay lonely

'Cause I was always at the, friendship stop
Picking gum off the brick wall, of the, friendship stop
Painted with mocking rainbows, was the, friendship stop
Fiddling with my fingers, until the, bell went off

And I would just pretend
I'd just pretend that I was there, waiting
Cause I couldn't comprehend
No, I couldn't comprehend, why it was just me, standing there

And time would subside, as days would go by
I'd make excuses, why no one cared
You see, invisibility, seemed in built in me
Cause life would go on, without clarity, oh clarity

'Cause I was always at the, friendship stop
Picking gum off the brick wall, of the, friendship stop
Painted with mocking rainbows, was the, friendship stop
Fiddling with my fingers, until the, bell went off

But I realise now,
I'd seen a lot of life
Too much they'd say
It didn't sit well right

They didn't seem to get
This fragile heart
They hadn't see the pain
I'd seen from the start

But if it wasn't, for the, friendship stop
I wouldn't have had the stories, of the, friends I've got
I wouldn't even know of the first thing of, the joy I've got
And I wouldn't fall in love with you, without my friendship stop
