I'm heartbroken and don't know what to do
Because I see now that I shouldn't have confided in you
I told you things that no one else knew
I really thought that I could trust you
But you betrayed me
Put me out there for everyone to see
Told my business to anyone with ears
So when it got back to me I broke down in tears
I straight loved and cared about you
Stupid me I thought you cared and loved me too
But a real friend wouldn't do something like this
A real friend wouldn't go around calling me a crazy bitch
Nah friends don't do each other like that
Real friends have each others back
Friends talk it out and tell each other how they feel
And even though it might hurt for a while I'd respect that you kept it real
But you hurt me so bad
Every time I hear your name I get extremely sad
Because you broke our trust
I guess there wasn't really an "us"
It still hurts at times
So I try my best to clear my mind
I asked God to forgive your ways
And to help me to forget those days
Yes I pray for both of our lives
Because we both were living off of lies
It's just sad this is what it came to
But I'm glad I see the real you
Because I see now that I shouldn't have confided in you
I told you things that no one else knew
I really thought that I could trust you
But you betrayed me
Put me out there for everyone to see
Told my business to anyone with ears
So when it got back to me I broke down in tears
I straight loved and cared about you
Stupid me I thought you cared and loved me too
But a real friend wouldn't do something like this
A real friend wouldn't go around calling me a crazy bitch
Nah friends don't do each other like that
Real friends have each others back
Friends talk it out and tell each other how they feel
And even though it might hurt for a while I'd respect that you kept it real
But you hurt me so bad
Every time I hear your name I get extremely sad
Because you broke our trust
I guess there wasn't really an "us"
It still hurts at times
So I try my best to clear my mind
I asked God to forgive your ways
And to help me to forget those days
Yes I pray for both of our lives
Because we both were living off of lies
It's just sad this is what it came to
But I'm glad I see the real you
