My friends have come and gone
Some gone 'round the bend
And some gone forever
And I can't get over it
And what happened to us
Is what happens to everyone
Sooner or later
And later is sooner than we think
I wonder what they know
Are they befuddled
And are they as confused as me
And a little bit frightened
Do they get up in the night
And pace their rooms
Does their life have any value
Or do they just, do they just disappear
Where do we come from
And what are we
And where are we going
We think we’re living the life
Things are getting better
But slowly and surely
We are being replaced
That's how it always Is
Don’t let it get you down
Just hold on tight for as long as you can
We all have a dream and then it fades
And it turns Into something dark and obscure
We try to figure It out
Why did things go kerflooey
We know we're not blameless
But the price is too steep
