You Can Call Them Friends

No Friends

Hey people,
Isn’t it so cool
To have no real friends
To be there for you?
 
And to sit there alone,
Alone, think you got it wrong,
Continue to pretend
You just misunderstand.
 
But to tell the truth,
It’s better not to care.
Forget all about them,
‘Cause they don’t give a damn.
 
You can call them friends.
In fact, they’re just a group.
Don’t be fooled by the pretense.
Even chicken can act as if it’s soup.
 
Don’t trust anyone
Unless they trust in you
Don’t love anyone
Unless they’ll love you too.

He began to wonder why he had felt uneasy at all. It was like a man wondering in broad daylight why a dream had appeared so terrible to him at night.
