**Verse 1** Always On your team man, I used to ride, Always begging you to be there, be by my side. Never gave an inch, always neutral, I kept it cool, held my tongue, But that weight was heavy, but with a brother’s love it was hung. You spoke in riddles as I bared my soul, And now your darkness has swallowed you, swallowed you whole. I thought you’d get it, man, I thought you’d understand, Block and chose your distance, made it a fucking demand. **Pre-Chorus** I needed friendship, not the sting of the blade, But the way you cut deep, man, it all just fades. You said what you felt, but the way you said it, It’s like you pulled the trigger, didn’t even regret it. **Chorus** Now we’re at the breaking point, we’ve hit the wall, Your words, they weren’t just sharp— they longed for my fall. Could’ve been healing, could’ve been light, But you turned your back and it felt so right. Now the bridge is burning, but it didn’t have to end, If only you had spoken to me like I was still your friend. **Verse 2** I’m not innocent, man, I played my part, Gave a mile, maybe that’s where the resentment starts. But you never said, instead you make me the villian, I wish you would’ve told how you were instead of the constant “I’m chillen” You called me out like I was the only one to blame, Like my truths were too heavy, Like you were baring a flame. But you didn’t see, The crack that brings down the wall, Just cuz your dad treated you like shit, Doesn’t mean I deserved that at all. **Pre-Chorus** Dude, I needed love, not the sting of the blade, But the way you cut deep, man, it all just fades. You said what you felt, but the way you said it, It’s like you pulled the trigger, didn’t even regret it. **Chorus** **Bridge** If we had met in the middle, not on the attack, Maybe this wouldn’t be where we turn our backs. But I’ll take what I’ve learned, I’ll hold it tight, And I’ll move forward, back into the light. You could’ve been more, we could’ve been real, But you shut the door when we could’ve healed. I know we both had our scars to share, to see. But I can’t be the best version of me while my best friend has so much anger there for me. **Chorus** **Outro** We’re standing here, at the edge of what’s left, And all I feel is this quiet unrest. Could’ve been something, it could’ve survived, But your words made sure this friendship died.
