I remember the day I was living the dream
When my dream was crushed at the age of seventeen
I lost my friends to gambling and weed
Missing the good ole' days, a feeling I bleed
The days were hard, the nights were always fun
Good times are gone, to bad they're done
I wish there was a way to fight the pain
Leave the past behind, hopefully I will gain

The best things have happened to me since I said goodbye
My new friends have always been by my side
They are what a true friend defines
But every day I thank my god that they're mine

I remember one day I went to them for help
Instead of their help, they said "Do it yourself"
I tried not to show it but it hurt me real deep
It hurt so bad I couldn't even sleep
The apologies were short, the insults were long
For someone so young, I was trying to be strong
I pray the day will come, this will end
I realize that we were never really friends

The best things have happened to me since I said goodbye
My new friends have always been by my side
They are what a true friend defines
But every day I thank my god that they're mine

My new friends are great, they like me for me
When I look in their eyes, I truly believe

The best things have happened to me since I said goodbye
My new friends have always been by my side
They are what a true friend defines
But every day I thank my god that they're mine

The best things have happened to me since I said goodbye
My new friends have always been by my side
They are what a true friend defines
But every day I thank my god that they're mine
