We save our souls, for absent friends Absent lovers, and absent men We hide our feelings, hide our tears Hide emotions and hide our fears The reasons why should not be said The reasons that we’d like to forget And we do... We save our money, save our cars Save our possessions, and save our positions We save our homes, save our castles Stare at the TV and still believe it Although it seems so, nothing’s changed Still kill our prophets, and pay for fools We still treat friends as if they’re foes But should treat our foes as if they’re friends
