Four Faces On One Crystal
Some say I should get over it, get on with my life,
and I finally took their advice.
Of course, it wasn't until you shattered me,
watching you with her.
Sure enough,
you invite me to your parties,
half the time your mom had no idea I'll be there,
you ride roller-coasters with me,
and we play Dungeons and Dragons in your basement.
I am your friend, in half of your life.
One of you is with her,
one of you with them,
one of you with us,
and one of you with me.
Make up your mind,
because one of you will be alone,
very, very soon.
