This song’s about a friend   A friend I’ve known since I was a child   He and I would talk about our lives   And what we thought love was all about   He was my boy   I love that boy to death and   Even now not much has changed   Except for how I see him with my heart   Cuz now my eyes don’t see the same   But he has no idea   How I feel inside   So I go on with my foolish pride   Walking away   Though deep inside   I wanna stay      This day I was prepared   And vulnerable as I could be   But when he stopped by   I couldn’t even speak   Cuz of what stood right in front of me   To my surprise   He brought along someone   Oh some random chick that he just met   As usual I smiled and shook her hand   Covering up my heart again      But he has no idea   How I feel inside   So I go on with my foolish pride   Walking away   Though deep inside   I wanna stay      So I go on with my foolish pride   So I go on all alone at night   So I go on living knowing it ain’t right   So I just let my heart continue to hide   Knowing my heart is so empty inside   I know he should be here by my side   I should be holding him instead of my pillow tight   But my foolish pride    Makes me walk away   Though deep inside   I just wanna stay   Oooh
