Heroes And Friends Lyrics - The Awakening - Melissa Etheridge

You can't take a trip 

if you don't first say goodbye 

You can't find a star 

if you don't look up in the sky 

You can't find the light 

if you don't know where the dark ends 

and you can't change the Heroes and Friends 

You can't light a spark 

if you don't first carry a flame 

You can't take the weight 

of a single ounce of shame 

You can't change the signal 

just the message that it sends 

the message of the Heroes and Friends

You can't touch the screen 

it can take the place of love 

you can disappear in either 

when pushes come to shove 

you can't walk the night into the dawn 

and back again 

looking for the Heroes and Friends 

You can't ride the back roads 

of the hometowns of the world 

You can't collide on sidewalks 

in a neon lighted blur 

You can't rush the stages 

and believe the words again 

looking for the Heroes and Friends 

Photos 

You can dedicate your life 

to breaking down the walls 

to ringing the alarm 

screaming down the halls 

you can't stand the judgment 

of the meaning in the air 

that we are all just Heroes and Friends 

Looking for the Heroes and Friends
