I remember when we talked all day
And when I held you promising it would be okay
Now I wish I could save you
Cause I know you're dying inside
No tears will fall
But don't it hurt that they sent you away?
Too many problems to deal with, so now you're in another state
Girl, I remember when I thought of you as a sister
Now it seems as if I'm an enemy
But through all the pain you caused I still wish I could save you
I wanna hold you and tell you it will be okay
But now you're over two-thousand miles away
You had the most potential to graduate
But now you're wrapped up in yourself, in those drugs that take away the pain
And those cuts that numb everything
I dont accept who you've become
I remember you for who you were
I remember the girl I loved
The girl I chose as my best friend
That's the way I chose to see you now
I don't want to see your shattered soul, the way you chose to go
I wish I could save you, but I can't even touch you
I'm the enemy, no longer the friend
Your miles away
You probably wont graduate and fulfill those dreams you had
You're too busy getting high
Or hating your life
I'm sorry I stood up to you
But I started praying for times with you to go by faster
I started to hate you
And everything you were
But I'm only sorry because I ended up loosing you
I'd do it all over again though
I wish I could save you from becoming who you now are
But not if I had to go through all the pain you caused, again
I wish I could save you from all the demons you call friends
I wish I could tell you it's okay
But you live now miles away.

Author notes
I wrote it about my now ex best friend, we stopped being friends October and she fell into the wrong crowd. Getting high amongst other things, she got kicked out of her house and sent to live in another state; though she's hurt me more times then I would like to admit sometimes I wish I could save her so thats why this was written.
