Couldn't Face Me
Months go by you're still a lie
Didn't even get a goodbye
Is he worth it?
Is he a perfect fit?
Is the Texas heat burning you alive?
You're living his lie
You can't replace me
You couldn't face me
Falling apart
Does he love your heart?
Can you feel you letting yourself down?
You're trapped in his lost and found
You can't replace me
No you couldn't face me
I watched you fade
You left me betrayed
Tell me is he worth the pain?
You lost you
He knew you couldn't replace me
So he wouldn't let you face me
Does it hurt with that empty heart
You let him rip us apart
You're pathetic
He's apathetic
All you see is his lie
Didn't I deserve a goodbye
I hope you cry
As you live your lie
I hope you hate
Because you caused your fate
You won't forget me
You'll never replace me
Someday I'll make you face me.

My inspiration is rather obvious I was betrayed by a dear friend.

Sounds like a double betrayal to me. Did one of your friends go off with your ex-boyfriend?

No my best friend ghosted me for a guy she has only known for a year. He treats her like crap and minipulates her.
Ok, so to some extent he has control over your friend in your view? Do you think there is even a slight chance that they might be happy & that you are the one who is sad, having less involvement with your friend? What I'm trying to say is, did your friend ever disclose that she was in an unhappy relationship with this guy at any time? It can be hard to lose an active friendship in this way. I have been through a similar experience myself also.

Wow, I am so sorry for the loss of your close friend my dear. I have experienced the same, you would think that someone with such a wealth of knowledge of who we are would know sudden unexplained absence and silence would leave us hurt.
I can say don't take it personal, she's just doing what she thinks will make her happy, however I know that hurt so you will work that out as you see fit. This is part of your right to feel how you will, I appreciate this space you have allowed me into with this work.
