You don't have to believe in something just because you've been
Told it all your life and now its all that's in between

A friend would, tell the truth too you
Let go and help you see it too
Do you feel safe?
When there are no excuses left for you to create

It does it to me every time
You must be reading my mind
A friend, not a stereotype
You'll pretend to be happy until you die
This time I needed you
You just turned away

There's nowhere left to go you know its easier to hide
Stupid games they're all the same until its time
It's time to play divide

I played it fast, I hit rewind
There was something in front I was hiding behind
Do I need help?
'Cause the only person you can rely on now is yourself

It does it to me every time
You must be reading my mind
A friend, not a stereotype
You'll pretend to be happy until you die
This time I needed you
You just turned away

Shoulda known better than to leave it there (x2)

Don't concern yourself, 'cause everything's all right (x4)
