Three old friends walk through the city streets.
Unsure of what to eat.
None of them make any money.
Spiky avoids stepping on a stuffed bunny.
None of them know what their futures hold.
Graduating college makes them feel cold.
Frozen to live in their familys' home.
Around 20 is when life is supposed to start.
To have a career, have your own place,
and to have someone be a part of your heart.
Back then their parents were considered real adults.
Being a "20 something year old kid" is today's insult.
The stress of expectations brings these three down.
They draw circles on the ground.
It's the same thing every time they get together.
In the drenching rain, sunny days or any weather.
From the outside they looks sad,
but they're doing what good friends do best.
To come together and have a support fest.
