'Better Than This'

You used to have it good
Just like the rest of us
Doing things together
Hanging out as friends

Enjoying ourselves together
With the people you knew and cared about
You seemed happy
You felt alive

Then one day it happens
Then your whole world is turned upside down
Leaving you broken
Weak and defenseless

We were there to help you cope
To try and get you through it as friends should do
It was all vain
As you turned hopeless and sour

We just could not put up with it anymore
Vain efforts to help
Cheap shots being taken
Just bitterness and pain

After you found someone else
You shielded yourself from the outside world and us
It hurt us both immensely
You do not have the slightest idea of how we really feel which is why

We just could not deal with it anymore
We just were not going to take it lying down
We took a stand and are standing by it
We are not backing down

Because we deserve better than this…
