Forgive

I understand
I know why you said the things you said

It was for the best
It had to be said, had to be dealt with

I had to leave
I couldn't stay under these circumstances

It was too much
It would only result in more depression

I didn't want that
I only wanted what was best for us

It hurts so bad
It pains me I'm no longer your friend

I must live with it
I won't be the reason you want to die

It will be fine
It means you can finally be happy

I am okay
I don't expect you to forgive me

It is too hard
It helps just knowing you're still alive

I forgive you
I understand, I had to let go

Helping a friend

I try to be nice to people
I try to be kind to people
I try to help people and
I try to be a good friend

I know how it feels to be unwanted
I know how it feels when people are rude
I know how it feels to be all alone
I know how it feels to have no one

I don't want anyone to feel like that

I've listened to your anger
I've listened to your pain
I've listened to your tears

And I did all I could to help

I've heard about your problems
I've heard about your depression
I've heard about your wish to die

And I did all I could to keep you alive

I have felt that way too
I have felt that pain too

And I have also wanted to die

I don't want anyone to feel like that

I help because I want to
I help because I care
I help because that's what friends do
I help because it's the right thing to do

I don't expect anything in return
I don't expect any favors

But I didn't expect to get the blame either
