From the beginning I let you know it was okay

You were my best friend

And you went with it anyway

He seemed more important

Just as important to you

As he was to me

From the beginning I let you know it was okay

So you went with him anyway

From the beginning I let you know I wouldn’t hang around

But now you seemed to breakdown

I constantly wondered

The possibility of staying friends

You were there for me

More than he ever was

But when he left

You left to go after him

And I’m glad you left

You told me a boy would never get in the way

But I know that’s what liars say

You told me you valued us more than him

But I know that’s a greedy person’s play

You told me time would never change us

But it did

That’s why I let you know it was okay

Because it would be so easy for you to walk away

You resented me in secret

When I was with him

You then resented me outloud

When I cried over him

I noticed when you stared in disgust

I noticed when you whispered to your other friends

I noticed when you only had the energy to talk to him

I noticed when you rolled your eyes

But I chose to ignore it

Because he was with me

I let you know it was okay

Because it would make you happy

If you were with him

I let you know I wouldn’t be hanging around

Because it would make me happy

If I went astray

You wanted us both

And I wanted my own growth

You said it’d be hard to let go

But here we are

How bizarre

So the moment you crumpled our paper

Every moment was a tear

As much as you ironed it flat

Every wrinkle showed with despair

So the moment you crumpled our paper

Every moment ended there
