Online friends
I had friends
once long ago
who would give
anything for me
and just the same
I was their friend
standing true
right by their side
if they would call
and say come right now
and bring a gun
I would be there
so long ago
so far away
and today
I stand alone
my standards are
just as they were
and duty is
so very strong
and today
if I should call
no one does answer
no one does come
I stand alone
in dark of night
out in the cold
myself alone
when I was young
so very long ago
in a different world
that now is gone
I did not dream
nor did I fear
of the friends
I have online
