I wrote these with a few friends in seventh grade
Going by
My days are going by They’re passing before my eyes The world keeps on spinning While we are sinning It feels like my life is passing before my eyes It always feels like it is Going by
I want to tell it to stop where it’s at But it’s not listening To anything like that That’s why it keeps going by Even though I don’t know why
Years go by faster and faster Minutes feel like seconds Seconds aren’t even there Sometimes it goes so fast I don’t even care This life is tough and I think it’s not fair
I want to tell it to stop where it’s at But it’s not listening To anything like that That’s why it keeps going by Even though I don’t know why
My life is passing by so fast I feel like I’m not there Now I have no time to spare The sun rises the sun sets For my life there are no bets This year has come and gone This life has cut me to the bone
I want to tell it to stop where it’s at But it’s not listening To anything like that That’s why it keeps going by Even though I don’t know why Going by…
The Friend You Used To Be
Oh dear, Here they come again The tears, here they come again Oh dear, Here they come again The tears, here they come again Ohhh… Your knife has cut me too deeply Never thought you’d backstab me Thought you were my Friend… The friend you used to be Was someone who was good to me The friend you used to be Was someone who would comfort me You were a good friend till You backstabbed me That was the friend you used to be You were a friend who cared for me A friend who helped me through everything A friend who was there for me Who always comforted me Who never let me down But now I realize… The friend you used to be Was someone who was good to me The friend you used to be Was someone who would comfort me You were a good friend till You backstabbed me You told my biggest secret That you promised to keep And that is how you cut me deep You made me cry You gave alibis It was a pile of lies The friend you used to be Was someone who was good to me The friend you used to be Was someone who would comfort me You were a good friend till You backstabbed me (Lead)The friend you used to be (Back-up)The friend you used to be You used to back me up Now the lies pile up The friend you used to be Was someone who was good to me The friend you used to be Was someone who would comfort me You were a good friend till You backstabbed me
Strong
The tears they come hard every now and then But I try to be strong again. I have to be for my brother and me But the tears they fight hard and long. I keep telling myself I have to be… BE STRONG! My momma is the one who has made me this way. I used to fight her every day. Her choice for a step dad turned out to be the worst. If it weren’t for my out burst I’d be in a hearse. So… The tears they come hard every now and then But I try to be strong again. I have to be for my brother and me But the tears they fight hard and long. I keep telling myself I have to be… BE STRONG! My rebel behavior has gotten me in tight spots But, hey, I’ve got out a lots. I’m just acting normally Like I always oughtta be But sometimes… The tears they come hard every now and then But I try to be strong again. I have to be for my brother and me But the tears they fight hard and long. I keep telling myself I have to be… BE STRONG! Gotta BE STRONG! Always… STRONG!
