Emergency Exit

In a tough time
When you need something of mine
I'm your easiest emergency exit
And now I finally see what you meant
When you said that I was your friend
What you forgot to add
Was the fair weather end
A friend in fair weather to another emergency friend

Do you even know me?
Do you ever hear my voice?
Or only just your own?
Can't you make a choice?
Between the sunny forcast and the storm?
You can't go half and half
You shouldn't act the part just when things are fine
You can't only be there some of the time
Your false claim should have made your entire devotion mine

In a situation where it's help you lack
I can garentee you'll want me back
I'm your emergency solution
I'm your dramatic story's resolution
When you said I was your friend
What you forgot to add
Was the fair weather end

Do you even know me?
Do you ever hear my voice?
Or only just your own?
Can't you make a choice?
Between the sunny forcast and the storm?
You can't go half and half
You shouldn't act the part just when things are fine
You can't only be there some of the time
Your false claim should have made your entire devotion mine

In the times when you've lied
I find it hard to decide
Yet I feel so utterly used
And I think your confused
About why you said you'd be my friend
When you fogot to add the fiar weather end

And you don't see that our friendship isn't complete
Where your part of it is fake, mine is filled with deceit
Every promice you speak
Leaves me even more empty, alone and weak
And my crying will barely cause you to pause
To break away from the crowd and their immature laws
But your claim to friendship is persistant still
I'm being used as the emergency exit against my will

Can't you see that this is hurting me?
Oh can't you just be what you said you'd be?
And stop using the hell out of me?

Do you even know me?
Do you ever hear my voice?
Or only just your own?
Can't you make a choice?
Between the sunny forcast and the storm?
You can't go half and half
You shouldn't act the part just when things are fine
You can't only be there some of the time
Your false claim should have made your entire devotion mine

If there's a rain cloud on my mind
You will never be as kind
To be there to shove the sunlight my way
But if rain is pouring down and dampening your day
You'll all the sudden be my best friend
And used me as and emergency to put your storm to an end
And in fair weather it all depends
I can never count on us playing the part as 'best friends'

Can't you see that your hurting me?
Why can't you be what you claim to be?
And please stop using the hell out of me
listem to me beg and pleed
Can you see this is something I need?

Do you even know me?
Do you ever hear my voice?
Or only just your own?
Can't you make a choice?
Between the sunny forcast and the storm?
You cna't go half and half
You shouldn't act the part just hen things are fine
You can't only be there some of the time
Your false claim should have made your entire devotion mine

Oh I'll get used to the way it has to be;
My being used and you a fair weather friend to me
