I Love You, But I Need New Friends

I gave you a handmade gift
And you forgot my birthday
I booked your favorite restaurant
And you didn't show up

As long as you say you're here
I'll accept all your crumbs
A scrap of your attention
Let's face it, we're strangers

You said you'd call
Its been seven months, I'm counting up
I saw you out
With priorities, your better ones

You say that you still love me
Like in some kind of promise
Like we're sorta family
Pretending it's still just us

"I know I screwed up-"
"Oh great! Of course, here it comes"

I thought I heard that you missed me
When I turned around it was just the breeze in my ear
And me by my own again

Did I do more than I should have?
When being with you turned so bad?
Always unreachable

Canceled all the plans we've made
Forgot all your promises
Ignored every text I sent
Lost all the gifts I gave

I wondered for a long time
How little my presence meant
And maybe that's my fault
I misplaced the role I played

Guess I always did
We had just each other when growing up
Now's not the same
You'd choose anyone over my name

And took me way too long
To recognize the ache that is
To prefer you to hate me
Instead of just not caring

You became a part of me
Pains me that I wasn't enough to be seen

I wish I was better, you seem better off now
Somewhere you never told me about
With who knows you better now

I thought I heard that you missed me
When I turned around it was just the breeze in my ear
And me by my own again

Did I do more than I should have?
When being with you turned so bad?
Always unreachable

As long as you say you're here
We're fine, I force the thought but
Each day a new piece of you gets lost

So the day you fade won't hurt so bad
I've always hated goodbyes
I sabotage myself
All or nothing at all

I thought that I saw you come back
When I turned around it was just a blur in my eyes
And me by my own again

When did this start to fall apart?
I wish we never even started
Can't you leave me?

I wish you cared just a little
Do you notice how many times we've been here before?
Over the same line again

I'm sorry if you're really in pain
I'm sorry I can't do this again
Did I ask too much?

I just wanted you to be here for me

(Shit)
