Couldn't Keep

(This one talks about a best friend reunion and how one rejects the other's kindness due to a past conflict)

You know what I couldn't keep,
The promise I had set,
To be like a big brother,
The best one you would get,

You know what I couldn't keep,
Yet love me still, you did,
The best friend you believed I was,
The faith you keep instead,

I want to say I'm sorry,
For leaving you behind,
Yet on the day I flung you,
I had believed you DIED,

You fell off that cliff,
The promise I had broken,
Remorseful and in fear,
The words were never spoken,

You were just a child, kid,
Why do you believe?
Why do you still think I'm good?
When I am envy, grief?

I'm called the Prince of Nightmares,
You know the reason why,
And on the day I flung you,
I left you out to DIE,

The good that's deep within me,
Begging you to live,
But I would never think it,
You were just a kid!

I threw you off that cliff that day!
Stop trying to show love!
I don't deserve you kindness,
So stop the SPAREs, enough!

I'm not a good best friend, kid...
Stop trying to be ki-
(Sniffling sounds) Please...stop the hugging...
You're gonna make me cry...
