"We Were Friends" lyrics

Suddenly we were friends, guarding our country from traitors and new trends
You are at the borders
I am at the beaches, examining exactly what the enemy teaches
Like presidents and pilots, we turned our blind eye to letters over our heads floating in the sky
Thousands of paper animals signaling danger
They are evolving, and the world's a stranger

No currency to drive us crazy
No vehicles would drive us and make us lazy
To make us lazy
Only time my fall is when I fear, only time may notice I disappear
And I can't go back without a counter attack, and I can't turn around
It's my mother's pride, my mother's pride...

So close to somewhere else but we're not going there
We scan the forest floors
Looking worse for wear
For life outside of ours
Because we are too shallow and too brave to hide our scars and step in one's shadow
I am protective over you and the stories we enact
Gain what from the smallest of contact

No currency to drive us crazy
No vehicles to drive us and make us lazy, ooh...
Only time I fall is when I fear, only time may notice I disappear
And when I see her, when I see her
Oh, when I see her every day

Only time my fall is when I fear, only time may notice I disappear, and I see her, when I see her, when I see her every day
