Dont pretend to be the Victim...

After all your faults, and infractions
After all of your selfish actions
No one cares about what you thought would be
And I especially do not care about what you think of me
How dare you claim to be the victim
And claim to be hurt
When in the interim
My name and image more than once did you subvert
All the while you claimed to be my friend
Love and hate, when did the two extremes begin to blend?

"All that was said and done, was to your benefit"
How dare you justify this charade?
Don't you see your actions ate away at my soul bit by bit?
You didn't think it would hurt me to be the last to join your parade?
Everyone already knew what my supposed problems were
It's funny how the passing of the months causes details to blur
You must have forgotten that you at one time
Were indeed my partner in crime.
Our sins and vices were shared
The weekend dawns of our wrath were not spared

It pains me to know that you knew of my affliction
You taunted me spreading stories of a supposed addiction
You only thought of yourself
I can only wonder why you didn't put your careless thoughts on the shelf
You could never even begin to fathom the agony I went through
Your first instinct was to commit hurtful acts
And this is why I'm through with you
I assure you from this I will never retract.

And you, you who claimed to be my confidant
The one who swore to take my secrets to the grave
For your sins a pardon I shall never grant
Your offense has turned this into a friendship that we can no longer save
I don't believe this to be as ridiculously simple as you seem to think it is
You accuse me of forsaking a friendship so antique over this
The transgressions of you and your friend have merited all that has gone awry
And you fail to realize that you had abandoned our friendship long before I
"Best buds forever.... so I thought"
You reap what you sow…why are you so distraught?
