Comrades

Did you drop your torch in the dark?
 The lights went out
 You scraped along the wall to find the door
 Did you fall from the pavement, again?
 You woke up screaming
 Alone, and covered in sweat
 Where are your comrades, now?
 They must be lost
 Where are your comrades, now?
 Could you buy the opulence
 Of peers and promises?
 Wise not to wait
 In the haze of the moment, they said
 "He was all about the morals"
 And swiftly sent humility to bed
 ♪
 And even thouh they're all liars and thieves
 Your own act of contrition
 Was deemed to be enough to cut you free
 Where are your comrades, now?
 They must be fools
 Where are your comrades, now?
 Could you buy the opulence
 Of peers and promises
 Dusted on their face?
 ♪
 Was your sinking ship quickly hemorrhaging rats
 All the way down?
 Were you disconnected, when a common sap
 Showed you that it's such a cruel world?
 Head-pausing refrain!
 ♪
 Did you think that if that's the way they played
 When all is said and done
 You're better off without them, anyway...?
