1. A man whose neighbor is his closest friend
Will find harm and trouble from him instead

2. Say something good, he'll twist it, change the sense
Speak ill, he'll stretch each word without pretense

3. So if I stay, I know that he will slander
And if I leave, ties will be cut asunder

4. It was a toxic bond forged out of greed
So go your way and let my heart be freed
