Where?

You're not the one I know
Quit asking me "Where'd she go?"
Was my best friend and more
But now I'm headed for that door

Letting go is tougher than I thought
Nothing to show for this battle fought
Will you run this time?
Or drop pretty words on a dime?

And she says the things I can't
And she's everything I'm not
But that includes a liar
Thank's for putting out his fire

You're not the one I know
Quit asking me "Where'd she go?"
Was my best friend and more
But now I'm opening the door

She took him by a storm
Hinted my name out of scorn
May this song set me free
Free from her free from him freeing me

Now I'm over it and done
I'd like to say we had a good run
But once again I'm not her
I won't reflect on how we were

You're not the one I know
Quit asking me "Where'd she go?"
Was my best friend and more
But now I'm out that door

I've lost the one I knew
& You're not the one I need
Get off your knees, don't plead
Was my everything and more
But I feel ruined at the core

Some things I can't erase
Some steps I can't retrace
I tried to pick up the pace
But I'm sick & tired of this race

Where'd she go?
Where?
Where'd she go, now?
Where?

He was the one I loved
She pushed and she shoved
Was my everything and more

I'm closing the door

The author's comments:
I wrote this song on the piano about a friend who had used me. She was in love with my old boyfriend, who was in love with me. All I cared about was our friendship; I didn't bother considering what he would have wanted because I wanted to run away from my problems and him. After repeatedly trying to confront her about it and having her yell at me for not saying the right things, I got tired of it. I wrote this to express the betrayal I felt when she called me a bad friend for being the one he loved.
Needless to say; I'm done with them both.
