This was our fairy tale,
You were the prince,
But like dew on flowers,
You dried up in the mist.
You left me in danger,
My own dragon to slay,
Yet, all I can think about
Is the bed where you don't lay.
I've curled my fingers,
Around my deepest regret,
I've buried my my connections,
Trying not to fret.
I should be used to this,
To this by now,
You weren't meant to be,
Meant to be anyhow.
Happy endings aren't for me,
At least in this book,
You just couldn't see.
You tend to seek the skin,
Instead of seeking beyond sight,
You took and took,
As if a birth right.
So my prince for the moment,
What should I learn?
Do I find some atonement?
No, it isn't for me to find.
It's for me to see the lie,
Know that it's there,
And with that you die.
Drying up with the sun,
No longer the night.
No longer for you any fun.
You were only but a dream.
A dream that I created,
Yet here I was left.
Very much sedated.
For you cannot handle who I am,
This is why you were only a plan.
I want a friend like you,
With eyes untrue
That seek to tear my heart,
I want to be your broken part.
I want a friend like you,
That despises what I do.
Yet, all through it you hide in smile,
Then force me to walk the mile.
I want a friend like you,
That remains just for you.
That can't seem to raise above,
Hunted like a injured dove.
I want a friend like you,
That remains ever blue.
Trying to bring misery around,
It's easy to keep those on the ground.
I want a friend like you,
That won't go through.
And will always stab me in the back,
Never readying me for when you'll attack.
I want a friend like you,
That is so untrue,
That you'll use me for whatever you like,
Then when you're done, you'll run me with a knife.
I want a friend like you,
That will truly abuse through
So I can bleed unjustified,
And know that you have lied.
I want a friend like you,
With intentions askew
That most wouldn't guess your game,
And leave out with all the fame.
I want a friend like you,
that when you're turning blue.
I can just leave you to die,
And never wonder why.
I ever wanted you around,
Because you kept me on this ground.
I guess I never wanted you to play,
But what should I say?
When you choke on the reasons,
That we withered the seasons
To find that I was better all through,
The friend I wanted like you.
