Friends Never Again Until The Very End
written by: John O'Grady
Category: Tragic
Forgetting myself to help another
Giving a home to whom, I thought was my brother
Only to find that he was stealing from my father and mother
Trying my hardest to see the good
Yet now all I see is a pathetic shell where a great being once stood
A thief with no honor,
Whom I thought was my blood
Yet now this red oil boils and curdles
Casting out my hand to help him over these hurdles
Only to find that he was merely a puppet
To his master, Indulgence
Now at the peak of the night all I can feel for this poor puppet is strife
For he is now hiding in the shadows of what was my love
My trust will never be earned so obtained again
On this day he has burned his last string
That hung him above the cold cruel stage
Surrounded by bars and hard wood he will dance where he will never escape
Like the pathetic puppet his will always be
Next to his father
The man he hated so much has become him
Devouring his undefiled wisdom
Cowering from fear of what is yet to come
And the joker will be there at his last breath
Laughing at him as he endures his second death
To contain this sorrow that wrenches my soul
Never again will I be whole
He has taught me more in one night then I could ever conceive
But only through trickery and deceit
Now I can see right through this veil he has cast over my third eye
He used my only weakness against me
My kind heart will never beat the same
But where my heart once beat so zealously
Now there is a hole filled with hatred and pain
This is where our paths have split
And on his grave is where I will shit
No longer will I open my home to anyone
The feeling of trust is now wrenched from my cold boney hands and thrust into the very heart of oblivion
Never again will I say this word
I have been stabbed with the sharpest of swords
Jesus and I are alike in a way
Betrayed by our best friend
Whom we thought would be there until the very end...
