Why weren’t you there
You swear you were
But in your heart you know it was a lie
In my hour of need
When all I needed was you
Where were you
No where to be found
You left my heart to feel abandoned
You convinced yourself you were there
But there is no convincing me
I know the truth
I was the one you abandoned
All I pray for you
Is that if this ever happens again with anyone
That you will be there for her
Like you weren’t for me.
