Missed the meeting

Where my friends discussed why I'm not around

I'm not around

You say I don't know who my real friends are

All I know is my real friends aren't talking behind my back

Why I'm not behaving like I should

In their mind's eye, but they don't even know me

And I don't think they ever could

Yah, you're gonna make me pay for what I've put you through

But I don't want to hear you say what you need from me

When all things I've done don't pave the way
