Have you ever been betrayed? That shit's the worst hit of painWhen somebody you loved can't look you in the faceAnd have you ever had your heart torn out by somebody you thought was a friendAnd now your trust is worn down or bought to an endNo pardons can mend it, when you're darkened withinFuck your cause & effect, it's a hard fate to take and your reasons don't soften the sinYour dogs can bark for you, but you gotta watch when you argueCause dogs will bite and snarl at you, just to remind you they're harmfulI feel awful, I'm a mental case, shattered to pieces and I've got a palm fullPast law school and beyond consolCause you've crossed the bar with me, farther than I've ever thought possibleMy choice is now mandatory and not optionalDon't speak another sentence to me, ever mention meI don't exist, convince yourself you invented meYou've committed the crime of the centuryAnd just cause loyalty ain't a trait you possess, Don't think that I'll lessen the penalty.Chorus:I love you in a place where there's no space in time (And that's forever right?)I love you for my life - you are a friend of mine (Only second to family)I love you in a place where there's no space in time (Who really got your back)I love you for my life - you are a friend of mine (How loyal are your friends, y'all?)What's your name again? I know, I knew it 2 seconds agoBut, I don't recognize this 2nd face, though to the 1st it's identicalSongtexteYou were the type that I put on a pedestal. Your acts were commendableBut the bond of friendship isn't impenetrableAnd inevitably the blunt force of ego proved lethalTo a good person forced to wallow in the shit of evil peopleFundamentally filled with avarice, a cheat from the soulSpending their lives to make sure that you ain't achieving your goalsUnreasonable kings that want to see you jump through rings of fireFor their own amusement, holding nooses - hoping trees are higherSo abusive towards you that truce just doesn't seem requiredCause, why play the game? When you can make the other team retireStrings are tirelessly pulled in your favor as you play the rumor creator,Twisting words till they sound like statements you made upWith a big grin you soak it all in, as former friendsGo face to face with contradicting convictionsPlots are thickening, cause you pitched in. You feel important, now?Must've been high as kite from snorting cloudsSorta proud of yourself, and the way you hold ya groundDistastefully wore the shroud, how's it feel to have puppets to order 'roundBut I saw through you, even before I foundHow you would say 'no, beef', give me dap, and hit me with a quarter-poundYour loyalty's watered down, Bottled with a squirt capBut When the drama popped off, where the fuck were you to plug the cork back.Chorus:I love you in a place where there's no space in time (And that's forever right?)I love you for my life - you are a friend of mine (Only second to family)I love you in a place where there's no space in time (Who really got your back)I love you for my life - you are a friend of mine (How loyal are your friends, y'all?)Men are as harsh, as women are vindictivePicking apart minutiae, On some bitch shit, kids all in your businessForget honesty, nowadays you'll be lucky find that qualityIn a drama oddessy where cats never react responsiblyAnd I'm jostling with haters, hypocrites and hypochondriacsAbolishing their dated ignorance and fighting copycatsand If I don't give my patience a restI'll prolly take my anger to death, complaining about some pain in my chestAged and distressed, thinking 'bout who just fucked me over - 20 years agoAmazing how pricks can miss your skin, yet pierce your soulBut where's the line at? Like where does loyalty appear to foldAnd what do you OWE someone and just WHAT do you feel your owedBut yo, you know when you've been done wrong, that numb calm,A breech in the moral code's eternally portableThe moral of the story's old even if it's poorly toldBeware of cats that straddle fences like the chain-link rodeo.
