Verse 1
You were always there when I needed you,
Helping me up when I was feeling blue.
But there was something off, I couldn’t see,
A hidden part that wasn’t meant for me.
Chorus
My friend, you’re hiding, like a snake in the grass,
Waiting for the moment that I slip and crash.
You’re smiling wide, but there’s something you hide,
Pretending to care, with your secrets inside.
Verse 2
You know my dreams, yeah, you know my heart,
On the outside perfect, but you play the part.
I hear a whisper that you won’t say,
Feels like you’re planning to drift away.
Chorus
My friend, you’re hiding, like a snake in the shade,
Watching every move that I’ve ever made.
Acting so true, but there’s venom in you,
A friend or a foe? I don’t know what is true.
Bridge
I didn’t expect it, I never knew,
Thought you were solid, thought you were true.
I trusted you first, but you showed me regret,
I gave you my love, but you gave me a threat.
Chorus
My friend, you’re hiding, like a snake in the dark,
Smiling so sweet, but I feel the mark.
I thought you were real, but I feel the sting,
A friend or a snake? Just a poisonous ring.
Outro
Now I see clearly, learned from the pain,
Not every friend’s here to stay through the rain.
Some wear a smile, but they lack what you need,
Better alone than a heart that deceives.
So I’m moving on, got my head held high,
I’ll take my time, won’t fall for a lie.
I’ll trust a bit slower, love with no shame,
But never again will I play in that game.
