There will come a time when they must face the things they never dared to face
The needs of the many, the needs of the few, and all that says
Spending all our days inside a shell of anonymity of white
No government or acronym to take our hands and tell us we will be all right

And so our lives go on
Day and night and day

We will hang it on the walls of our homes right beside the photos of our wives
A banner that was made for us for being who we are
Truly ordinary lives

And so our lives go on
Day and night and day
Brothers in fraternity
