Heroes And Friends

You can't take a tripIf you don't first say goodbyeYou can't find a starIf you don't look up in the skyYou can't find a lightIf you don't know where the dark endsAnd you can't change the heroes and friendsYou can't light a sparkIf you don't first carry a flameYou can't take the weightOf a single ounce of shameYou can't change the signalJust the message that it sendsThe message of the heroes and friendsYou can't touch the screenYou can take the place of loveYou can disappear in etherWhen pushes come to shoveAnd you can walk the nightInto the dawnAnd back againLooking for the heroes and friendsYou can ride the back roadsOf the hometowns of the worldYou can collide on sidewalksIn a neon light of blurYou can rush the stagesAnd believe the words againLooking for the heroes and friendsYou can dedicate your lifeTo breaking down the wallsTo ringing the alarmScreaming down the hallsYou can stand in judgmentOf the meaning in the airThen we are all just heroes and friendsOooh-oooh-oooh-oooh-hoOooh-oooh-oooh-oooh-hoOooh-oooh-oooh-oooh-hoOooh-oooh-oooh-oooh-hoOh yeah, yeah, yeahOooh-oooh-oooh-oooh-hoLooking for the heroes and friendsOooh-oooh-oooh-oooh-hoOooh-oooh-oooh-oooh-hoOh yeah, yeah, yeahWhy do we sacrifice our lives?To what is left when it all endsWhen all we want is heroes and friends
