Close, But No Cigar

Look in this mirror, your friend of a reflection
I've been here the whole time through the wars and tears
You never realize I wouldn't go even when you push.
If I could change inside, I'd throw the feelings away
Take back every single painful thing I can say
I'm crying tears I can't stop shaking because
You don't realize what I'd do just to make it better
I don't know what to say more than I'm sorry
And i never meant for it to be this way
I never wanted to upset you like I have
I'd change the past even trade in the good
Just to know right now we'd be laughing
Instead of crying and asking ourselves why
Friendship came down until it was nothing
More than something leaving us all hurting
My apologies, I'm letting go, I've tried
To explain this to you so many times
To be seen, stand out, be loud, be proud
If you're living in my shadow look into the sun
When you want to be noticed, let your life shine out
Tape your heart up, get back into this life don't make this
Something so terrible that it's ripping us apart at the seams
Look in this mirror, I'm your friend, no reflection


Just a friend.
Not a reflection.
Similiar, Close.
But no cigar.
