NOT A NICE PERSON TO KNOW

It’s been ages since we met

You’ve gone from stubborn to resilient

And pulled through it all

I’ve gone from juvenile to jaded

And barely survived the fall

You’ve turned around things with a smile

And dissed the Art of Sadness

I’ve just laughed and cried quite easily

And bartered calm for madness

This You is far more brilliant

This Me is far more shallow

So what can I say that’s not been said before

I’m just not a nice person to know.

Time changes all, so they say

You found a balance that’s effortless

While shaking up the stagnant

I made changes for a big persona

Then got left with fragments

Your goodness leaves a trail of smiles

It’s certain you’re unforgettable

My edge has lost its reason

It’s definitely regrettable.

This You is far more spectacular

This Me is far more hollow

So what can I say that’s not been said before

I’m just not a nice person to know.
