I've tried so hard to be your friend
but you don't seem to care. 
To try so hard with no avail,
is just not fair. 

Petty Endeavor, you did not try. 
To be a confidant to me. 
Now you know what its like, 
to say good bye. To be torn from inside. 

You were never around, kept me on a shelf 
but then you always did, oh always did. 
Should I say good bye, bet you did not know 
I felt this way. 

Petty Endeavor, you did not try. 
To be a confidant to me. 
Now you know what its like, 
to say good bye. To be torn from inside. 

I tried to give you openings,
you wouldn't ever take them. 
But saying I'm over it's 
actually an understatement. 
For you reconciliation comes in the form of self preservation. 
After a trail of tears I've got some reservation.
We'll stay on opposite shores I'm done trying to build bridges
After this many years it feels ridiculous. 
I refuse to give you the treatment that you're used to, 
I think your high hopes, could use some new shoes. 
I watched your ego, needlessly swell. 
You refused to share now you see I can be greedy as well. 
And those lies that you needed to sell, back when I was about it. 
Thought you were one of a kind, no you're quasi exotic. 
The flow of positive thoughts have been clouded, possibly blocked. 
Watch as we stop, you know I'm not gonna be caught, not to be plopped. 
Onto the corpses of those you never cared for who didn't know to forfeit
Before it was too late but I been there before and 'Ces La Vie'. 
There has to be some casualties in every war. 
So I guess I lost the wager cuz I Feel like Dr. Frasier, 
Slitting my wrist with Acham's razor like.
In real life you never had much to offer. 
I'm not one to rush to alter, rather the rock of be gebralter. 
So, we broke it off and me I've never been better. 
I feel like this whole relationship has been a petty endeavor. 

Now I say goodbye, hope you have a good life. 
But then again I know you will, (know you will). 
Such a sad goodbye, cuz I tried but you just don't care. 

Petty Endeavor, you did not try. 
To be a confidant to me. 
Now you know what its like, 
to say good bye. To be torn from inside.
