keep moving

i had a conversation
with a friend
regarding the event that sometimes occurs
moving
after expressing my desire to get out of this town
she objects
why??
because
i'm sick of it here
the same place
my whole life
there must be a place better suited for me
to this she replies
i've moved A LOT
i grew up moving all over
it's not that great

yeah ok
i can understand that
growing up
you wanna have friends
best friends
whatever
now
i feel i've grown up
those "best friends"
we all had as a child
99 percent of you probly don't even talk to them anymore
i know i don't
they moved away
moved on
you naturally parted ways
and it would be one thing if now i had some real 'best friends'
that i could count on
i need something to count on

don't get me wrong
i've had friends like that
but they've never lasted
even now i have one or two
but i'm matured past putting my trust
in the fact that they'll always be there
it doesn't happen
i can't keep doing this

this makes moving
make sense
since these 'best friends'
really don't last all that long
i might as well not let myself get attached
i can move to a knew city
find a new "BFF"
and when it inevitably ends
i'll move on
without having been let down
cuz secretly all along i knew it would happen

and until i find someone to prove me wrong
someone to ALWAYS be there for me
someone to fully trust
and not let me down
i will KEEP moving

if or when that person shows up
i will marry her
and i'll have found a place to rest then
the end.
