"I'm Sorry For You, My Friend" lyrics

I'm Sorry For You, My Friend

You've known so long
That you were wrong
But still you had your way
You told her lies
And alibis
And hurt her more each day

But now your conscience
Bothers you
You've reached your journey's end
You're asking me
For sympathy
I'm sorry for you, my friend

You laughed inside
Each time she cried
You tried to make her blue
She tagged along
Through right and wrong
Because she worshipped you

You know that you're
The one to blame
There's no use to pretend
Today's the day
You start to pay
I'm sorry for you, my friend

Today as she
Walked arm in arm
At someone else's side
It made you stop
And realize
That time has turned the tide

You should have known
You'd be alone
Cause cheaters never win
You tried and lost
Now pay the cost
I'm sorry for you, my friend
