So many memories left behind for reasons that only I know

Still they cloud up my mind and make my ambitions low

I can recall a time when our house was never quite

Everyone showed up at the same time to cause a riot

Never a dull moment and always meeting someone new

But the friend ships never really grew

Many things were stolen by people who we trusted

Yet we said nothing to them even we they were busted

This abuse went on four years before we had enough

They didn’t think we could ever get tough

All we ever wanted to do was help the ones who had no one

We learned they had no one for a reason

So we cleaned house and found out who our real friends are

Still the damage to our hearts hurts the worse by far.
