[Verse 1]
A bond of trust has been abused
Something of value may be lost
Give up your job, squander your cash, be rash
Just hold on to your friends

[Verse 2]
There are more than enough to fight and oppose
Why waste good time fighting the people you like?
Who would fall defending your name
Don't feel so ashamed to have friends

[Verse 3]
But now you only call me when you're feeling depressed
When you feel happy I'm so far from your mind
My patience is stretched, my loyalty vexed
You're losing all of your friends

[Verse 4]
Hold on to your friends, hold on to your friends
Resist or move on, be mad, be rash
Smoke and explode, sell all of your clothes, just bear in mind
There just might come a time when you need some friends
