Friends we were never meant to keep
Slipping through my fingers
Like the grains of sand
that betrayed the sea
A mirage in the desert
That keeps running away
I clutch at your arm
Begging you to stay
But it turns to dust
It turns to smoke
And you drift farther away
I wish I knew better
I wish I couldn’t shatter
But a sliver of hope remains
Maybe you still love me
And we could still be the same
As I lay under the stars
You used to read about
Clutching to the memories
I think it’s time to realise
You were a friend I never meant to keep
