no longer

i
i am angry and shaking with it

yes

i
i am taken and consumed

for
you
you have trespassed on my good nature



and

you
you have walked through my belief

and

you
you have broken my trust by abusing my friendship

and

i
i have allowed it.


yes


i
i have welcomed you time and again

and

i
i have supported you no matter what

but
i
i am done now
i mean it this time

because

i
i will not be treated this way

and

my
my heart pounds with this rage that's inside me

and

it
it beats faster than fury.


because

i
i never deserved this

y'know

we
we were so good together

and

we
we had laughter and fire


but

we
we are no more in any way

you see

we
we are through now

there's no

we
we are not "we" any more

and

you
you who professed to love me

and

you
you who talked of a life together

yes

you
you can't come to this table

cuz

you?
you aren't my friend any more.
