they say you don't know
what you got until it's gone
it's true
one minute your best friends
riding the waves of friendship
and then
someone else comes along
another competitor in your fantasy land
it's not survival of the fittest
it's survival of the
smartest
                   funniest
                                   caring
from that day forward
you've got to fight
every inch and nail
every bone and drop of sweat
then there gone
is this real
is this real
I can't tell
what I feel
maybe in the end
I'm dead to them
