Betrayal is a strong word that’s used a lot
Even when you don’t need to
Trust is what we need but don’t have
Right behind my back you call me names
And my friends you’ve mocked
You’re the one who should be punished
After all you’ve done to me
Lies are all you know

Because of you I have few friends
Everyone is judging you to
Though your ways are simple
Righteous but yet crude
Although you still have friends
Yet they’ll be gone soon
And I know one day you’ll be sorry
Lonely is what you will be

But that would make me happy
Even to see you suffer for a second
Tonight will be that night
After sunset when it’s dark
You’ll pay for what you’ve done
After that you’ll have no more
Life isn’t what I mean

This piece was inspired to me when my friend started talking behind my back to her mom because her cousin said stuff that wasn't true.
