I know they won't be there for me
Until the very end
But I've learned twice as much from my enemies
As I ever will from my friends

You all know who you are
Should you happen to read this confession
And I have to thank you
For every priceless lesson


She showed me my potential
The way I could have been
Perfect in appearance
But irreversibly flawed within

Your actions taught me to accept
What I cannot change
So thanks for your stupidity
Although that may sound strange

He taught me that passion is like alcohol
I was addicted to the feeling
But now I've learned not to drink and drive
And so I've begun my healing

You showed me how it felt to live
On the edge of stability
Enticing me with danger
You also set me free

I hate the girl who made me see
The other points of view
I'd be lost if I was still blind
I resent it but it's true

Every word you spoke was a challenge
And I chose to accept
I've grown immeasurably stronger
Through every tear I haven't wept


You all know who you are
Should you happen to read this confession
And I have to thank you
For every priceless lesson

I know they won't be there for me
Until the very end
But I've learned twice as much from my enemies
As I ever will from my friends
