Don’t you want a friend who will have your back?
Who will never criticize you?
Always be with you
Through the good times and the bad
Someone who you can talk to about anything and they won’t tell

But you know that doesn’t happen
They will criticize you
They might not always be with you
They will find someone else

You won’t matter to them
They will tell people the things you wanted kept hidden
They lost all your trust
But then they will be sorry they left

They want your trust back
The people they left you for left them
Could you trust them again?
It’s your choice
