You were my friend
I thought you were
You were never him
And I was never her
But we were friends.
You were never cruel
You were never kind
But there was something in you
That only I could find.
You never loved me
I did not care
But if I looked for you
You were always there
Because we were friends.
We did not often speak
What was there to say?
But I thought you'd be here
Until the final day
He's coming for me
For what I said
For my beliefs
I will not long be dead
It's fine for you
When I take the curse
Why should it not be fine for you?
You'll be none the worse.
Even if we were friends.
And now it's here
My final day
Nothing more to hear
Nothing more to say
Only tears to shed
For years that were not
I'll soon be dead
And Charity Burbage will be forgot.
I thought we were friends.
We were friends
I knew we were
I may not be him
And you may not be her
But we were friends.
I didn't mean to be cruel
I didn't want to be kind
But there was something in you
That only I could find.
You never loved me
I did not care
But if I looked for you
You were always there
Because we were friends.
We did not often speak
What was there to say?
But I knew I'd be here
Until the final day
He's coming for you
For what you said
For your courage
You will never be dead
To me.
It was awful for me
When you took the curse
Why should it not be for me?
Would I really be none the worse?
And now it's here
Your final day
Nothing more to hear
Nothing more to say
Only tears to shed
For years that were not
I'll one day be dead
But Charity will not be forgot.
My friend.
