Crystal Clear Tears (I'm Looking Through You)

You say you have so much to hide
You wear your many therapies on a badge of pride
Problems, problems, until to the others
No one listens

You cry about not graduating, that it’s not fair
But I saw, your homework, you never did a share
English just didn’t fail itself
You did, giving up instead of pushing on

You’ve acted like a monster, enough that we should all go away
But with your sweet words, somehow, they all stay
Treating your best friend like shit
And she still takes you back, without a fit
How is that fair?

I know you have your problems, more than most
You have a billboard, while I only have a post
Depression is something I know all too well
I mean, under it’s weight I nearly fell
But now, you use your problems for your own gain
Instead of vanquishing them, you tell them all of your pain
Using them to justify your harsh actions
Burning words
How you hurt others
Until all they see is you

The victim?

I will always care for you
After all, you’ve helped me too
But this, it’s got to stop
I want them to see the whole picture, instead of this image crop
Because, you’re ruining what I’ve built
Brick walls cracking

Through your twisted words and selfish eyes
Your mouth spinning stretched truths, lies
Wanting them to hate me instead of you
You’re afraid they’ll see right through
I care about you, you are, were, one of my best friends
But now, you’re crafting my end
And all I can do is stand by
Because any word out of my mouth
Is another knife you twist to put in my side
