And where are all my friends,
oh no, they gone
and where are all my friends,
I am, alone
I don’t blame you
for not liking me,
loss of mind
makes room for company,
those starry eyes
I cant compete
if I plead the fifth
you'll forget me
these people I'm
imagining
feel split in two
what's happening
so I'll face these clouds
all on my own,
when left behind
still find home
All my fam are friends of me
And all my friends are fam
but they all just watching me,
these friends aren't real to them
i know how it feels
to have my last meal
creme de la creme
this world ain't real
You let them in
Best to pretend,
so cue the roses
can we be friends
you must have foes
way up high,
so keep them close,
don't be their ghosts
and the good life is
stranger now
Just met you but
im in danger now
All my fam are friends of me
And all my friends are fam
but they all just watching me,
these friends aren't real to them,
All of them abandon me
And that wasn't the plan
now they all just haunting me,
these friends are just pretend,
Its true I play a part
look both ways to cross my heart
cheat w death so now it’s over
left me hangin, called that closure.
you call yourself a friend then call yourself a friend then you then call yourself a friend then yourself a friend
Then call yourself
And where are all my friends,
oh no, they gon-*

The visions would come no matter how unwilling the young man was. He was shown all sorts of bizarre things. One night, he collapsed under the sudden weight of unreality breaking down into frayed strips of corrugated time loops and foresighted purpose. He got up, left his apartment and wandered the college campus streets, afraid for his life. Where did he need to be; where was the exact spot? But the air would bend and reveal terrible creatures from the void. This young man with schizophrenia had never felt such terror before in his fragile being. A consuming terror that brought an eternal emptiness devoid of feeling. The void creatures watched him with an otherworldly stare. They had been following him all day, and now they were revealed to him. One had perched like a vulture atop a street lamp. The young man grabbed a piece of wood from a trash can, as some desperate will for defense. The stars in the night sky too became piercing eyes, peering down at him with some unknowable omniscient purpose. He ran, although there was no where to go, and his concerned friends found him in some alleyway, clutching that piece of wood. They heard him muttering and were too scared to approach. Then the police took him. There was one corded phone in the mental hospital, one connection to the friends outside that were real to tell apart from the ones only he could see.
