She was only sixteen when we crossed this path

Ended individual relationships, consumed by this wrath

She was cute, yea, resembled the girl I swore I'd marry

But she was more like a broken-winged angel, and sadly

Walkin' thru this ghost town, a lost soul to repent

I used to ask her how she was every now and then

I loved her smiles, how she used to pretend she was okay

When deep down inside I knew how nothing was okay

She was an ugly duckling turned to the blind eye
But I predicted exactly one day she'd beautify

Turn into the beautiful swan without magic wands

Yet at that moment that moment seemed ever forlorn

They told me to stop wasting my time she ain't worth it

But I didn't want the sex, I just wanted this friendship

Only she could relate this emptiness I hide inside

She just wanted to fit in, clenching that thorn, that pride

Exchanging messages on ice-cream sticks, smile wide!

One of a kind, she harnessed and reversed the tide

Killed the darkness inside my head, inside my chest

Cure for sickness, all that I had, she was the best

We started hanging out whenever we were down

At the same time she drowned out the unhappy sounds

Suggested leaving this town, needed a change of place

And she got her wish first, left this place of rat race

What was I to do? She came from a rich family

There was no way I could have stopped this from comin'

Told me how unbearable it was, I saw it all

From the tears on the face to the fists on the wall

But I knew it was for her own good, life altering

She needed real friends, friends who'd stop her crying

Rich people are everywhere man, but she was real

She appreciated the friend I was, and that's how I feel

Man, I still remember your letters of complaint

How we hated the fact we were no longer saints

How you hated change, I know, I too I felt the same

I felt disdain, I felt the same shame and the pain

This is the city of dearth, no mines to unearth

Takes a lot of nerve for anyone to show their love

And it's been 4years since you left my side

There's so much to lose and only so much I can hide
