The New You

Whenever I look at you
 Wearing a smile trying to play it cool
 Strutting in style
 Hanging with major fools
 All over town
 Your footsteps seem so certain now
 Have I grown old to you?
 A relic in time
 Sign of a boring youth
 To blemish your file
 Guess I could only feel
 A bit of surprise
 How quickly you could change your mind
 I can remember a day
 When you never made me wait
 I never needed to beg you to listen
 We used to stand at the gate
 Till there was nothing left to say
 Now I just stand in the way of your ambition
 I think it's great for you
 Getting the hype
 I've never related to
 The envious type
 There's only one trait that I
 Can never abide your willingness to live the lie
 I noticed it's been way too long
 Since I could understand
 The soul in your assertions
 And the virtue in your plans
 I want to go back to a time when you really spoke your mind
 I wish it was back then cause I really miss my friend
