The Lesson

I thought you were my friend

I thought you were a blessing

Instead I paid the price

You were just another lesson.

To you I was a friend

But you couldnt be to me

I saw the best in you

I wanted to see you succeed.

i called you my best friend

And you pretended to be.

But then the mask fell off.

Revealing the enemy.

I looked past all your flaws

And all your ugly parts

I gave you the broken pieces

And all the love left in my heart.

I thought you were my friend

I thought you were a blessing

For that I paid a price

You were just another lesson

turns out I was your blessing.

I was your friend

I was there for you

I gave you something special

Before I knew the real you.

I was your friend

I was your blessing

But you didn't care

I was just another lesson

I hope you see that now

And realize what you lost

You couldn't see what you had

And we both paid the cost.

Cuz I was your friend

I was your blessing

I hope you miss me

I hope you learned your lesson.
