Cardboard Friends

[Verse] Fake smiles in the crowd Whispers low echo loud Hard to trust what they say True friends don't fade away [Verse 2] Chasing trends in the frame Losing sight all the same Real hearts beat in sync True friends lift not sink [Chorus] Only real ones stay Through the night and day Fake ones drift away Only real ones stay [Verse 3] Face down locked in screens Missed calls broken dreams True friends break the mold Fake ones leave you cold [Verse 4] Shallow words fade to dust True bonds built on trust Empty praise can’t compare True friends always there [Bridge] Deep connections strong Through the right and wrong True friends hold you tight Fake ones out of sight
