Your empty words
Only cut me into thirds
I try to reach out for you
But you simply threw me away
Why do I bother?
When all I will do is wander.
Save your cries
They will only ruin your eyes
I tried to be a friend
But I can spend my time on better things
You hurt me deeply when you push me aside
You are just like the ocean when it’s tide washes in
Can’t you see my worry?
Or are you just in a hurry to get false affection?
My words are true
All I ever do is
Why can’t you see that
Or is all that you have ever felt false?
Just like the friends you seem to pick
Through thick and thin
They will win you nothing
Even though my anger burns
I shall never turn away
For I am a true friend
Though I only blend in with the crowds in your mind |

Very nice. To me, I see it as the speaker basically saying that she/he has had enough with her/his friend rejecting and ignoring her/him. This person has been completely devoted to that so-called friend, but the friend doesn't care; perhaps the friend's too caught up in his/her own life or miseries.

I see a highschool relationship between two different sterio-types. One of them wants to be friends, and the other is too stuck up to even consider. Like.... the loser and the jock kind of situation. OR! I see a lower workerman looking up to the exective of the company. It seems to be a split with me.... -.-'

Reaching out and then realizing you have to move on because that person--maybe lower workerman like Dragon said--cannot make the effort to reach out in return; maybe that's why they act so distant.

It's fine. I just mean that my grandma doesn't really take the time to make friends; she's really sociable, but she doesn't go to a lot of trouble to keep friends. So she constantly calls us because she gets lonely or whatever, which is fine, but I think she tries to cover up any emotion she's feeling with false happiness.

Huh, yours should meet mine then... Because like yours, mine is lonely, but she covers hers with scorn for the world, and anger instead.... *sighs* I pity the old lady: she refused to move into a nursing home.

Can't blame her for refusing the nursing home (there're lots of horror stories about the ones in this area in terms of volunteers ridiculing/neglecting the residents). I always feel like I kind of have to put on an act when I talk to her over the phone, where I have to always be happy, lest she think I'm suicidal. I remember once when I didn't sound as enthusiastic as I usually do when I talk to her, and she asked my mum if I was "feeling alright? Depressed?"

Ah. Loverly. No, mine is even slyer than that. She takes me for a car ride, normally getting me a star-bucks, and then milks me for stuff about my mom. "So, how's your mom?" Leads into deeper questions that basically mean , "Who the hell has she been sleeping around with recently?" Trying to be happy and act around this woman does not work.

Oh, my God! My grandma recently found out that my aunt (her ex-daughter-in-law) has come into a great amount of money, and she's like, "Oh. Does she have a rich boyfriend?" *rolls eyes* And when my mum was little, she thought that my grandpa was cheating on her and asked my mum to help her consult the Ouija board. She spent a lot of that time crying; my grandpa was a bastard, and I don't say this because of the answer.
