A/N: To the friend this was written for, you know exactly what I'm talking about. To anyone else, I hope you liked it. Maybe it can help you and a friend too.


Truth

What happened to you?

Where’s the girl you used to be?

The one that knew God would see her through,

The one that seemed so wild and free,

The one that used to be my best friend,

Is that girl still there?

This won’t hear the truth that needs to be said,

This one covers her pretty face with her hair,

This one looks like she’s lost,

She turns away,

She wants to escape at any cost.

What am I supposed to do?

Do I just watch you slowly fade?

It’s hard cause I know what you go through is rough,

But neither of us has it made,

With me not being there for you I know it’s tough,

Yeah, I have a house and a car,

But this wasn’t my choice,

I didn’t want to be this far,

But why aren’t you using your voice?

Cause hey, you’re becoming a hypocrite,

Don’t look at him or look to her,

Stop trying to play a role you know you don’t fit,

That’s not the girl you were,

That’s not the girl you are,

Darling, God knows your heart,

Let him catch you before you fall too far,

He didn’t make you to play this part,

Don’t turn from him,

Cause Honey, you know those pills don’t really help

You’ll end up sinking before you even get a chance to swim,

Bottom of the ocean isn't so fun when you’re tangled in the kelp,

Look at that sunrise,

You know you’re a star, supposed to shine in all that dark,

Don’t fall to your demise,

Don’t be like the rest, stand out and leave your mark,

That stupid boy isn’t worth this,

You’re only sixteen; love is still a distant dream,

What if you waste your life on him and one night you end up face to fist?

What then Darling?

What should I say?

This cycle is never ending,

It’s the same every day,

He messes up; you turn the other cheek,

You mess up and he turns his back you,

You know only God can give you this love that you seek.

He has enough of it to last your whole life through.

So take a good long look in my eyes,

Don’t deny it,

Don’t you dare try and start with those lies,

I’m telling you this is a part you don’t fit.

You’re just part of a different puzzle,

Some one is missing a piece

You can’t silence me with your attitude, I won’t wear your muzzle.

When did my best friend's existence cease?

I speak the truth cause I don’t want to wake up one day and hear the bad news,

You and your pills went to sleep and never woke up,

You told me faith doesn’t work that way for you, but it works the way you choose.

Don’t take a sip from the devil’s cup,

Don’t let the enemy have the upper hand!

If it doesn’t please God, it pleases the other end.

Can’t you hear the songs they sing in the church band?

You’re my best friend,

I wont just let you slip away,

I can’t just let you fade,

Much to your dismay,

Telling you this is part of why I was made.
