Farewells Of The Mind

I wrote this about a friend when she kind of pushed me away...
Did I really mean something to you?
Or was I just the girl you fell back on?
Was everything you said to me true?
Or was it just a con?

Did you really love me?
Or did you say it to get me off you back?
Did you always want to be Jen-free?
Or was there in the end something I lacked?

Was it just your way of not getting hurt
So when she stabs you in the back
I’ll just be there
Cuz if that’s the case
I don't think it’s fair

To write all over me
And use me like a piece of paper
To vent anger to me
And then make amends with her

So I'm telling this to you
In a way of saying goodbye
To show you that I really did care
Just not enough to lie
