They were there
Every time I needed them
They showed me their friends
But felt out of place
Like I intruded on their group
They made me feel important
But I pretended I didn't know them
Because I was scared of others knowing
Anything about me
They didn't know I think
But I did let my friends know about them
I talked about them
I told my friends about why I liked them
People did know about us
But I never let it show
And I think they never knew
How much they meant to me
I basically betrayed them
I stomped over it all because I
Didn't want the others to know
Because they'd walk over me
Just like they did last time
