You used to say I should open my eyes She's a weight, she'll drag you down You warned me like a prophet does With a brother's voice and a worried frown Held me close like we were blood Spoke of freedom, truth, and light But I was blind, caught in the flood Thinking your words were always right But it wasn't you who made me leave I woke up late, but I left What I didn't see or dare believe Was the knife behind your breath You held my anchor Just to toss it in the sea Preached like some saint Then kissed the lips you called disease A fake escuse and no face to face Like betrayal leaves no trace You stole what you claimed would break me You were anchor and blade, hiding in grace Now I see silence speaks the loudest And friendship wears a mask too well You warned me like a loyal friend But mapped the path where you would dwell Was it envy wrapped in care? Or control you craved to keep? I tried to trace the reasons there But people like you cut and leave I don't wish you what I lived But may your conscience never sleep Those who strike behind the back Never lie in slumber deep You held my anchor Just to toss it in the sea Preached like some saint Then kissed the lips you called disease No sorry, no face to face Like betrayal leaves no trace You stole what you claimed would break me You were anchor and blade Now I walk without you both And I wear this lesson proud Not every friend is shelter Not every warning's loud
