it s in the darkest depths we know that we sow the seeds of something beautiful on the blackest night we see the stars bright glow but not if we close our eyes no we can t just close our eyes i saw my neighbor in the street we talked of family of war and the economy he said boy i lost it all but here s the irony i found everything i need we ve got everything we need no love don t care about lost money we ve got everything we need all these debts that we owe are relieved when we know the expense of our lives is not met with what we buy it s a fixed game we re in don t doubt the value of a friend and please stick by my side oh i need you by my side i ll stand by your side if you ll be right by mine i find solace in the woods when the city s grip gets too unberable next to trees my problems seem miniscule i think of those that need a hand sometimes we just need a hand no hope don t grow from a stimulus plan sometimes we just need a hand all these debts that we owe are relieved when we know the expense of our lives is not met with what we buy it s a fixed game we re in don t doubt the value of a friend and please stick by my side oh i need you by my side i ll stand by your side if you ll be right by mine
