What happened to lifelong friends
A friendship sealed with blood
What happened to true love
A love to die for
What happened to a song that was our song
That meant commitment to just us
What happened to I’ve got your back
No matter what
What has happened to the soul of people
Do you feel anything for anyone
Do you even know you’re alive
The heart pumps blood to an empty vessel
A vessel someone else steers
We walk by people as if they don’t exist
Cold and listless people we have become
Numb to anything and everything
A drug for all aches, pains, brains, and change
Numb to life, numb to people
Waiting to die
Waiting on the big pie in the sky
