Invisible Friends

He’s waking, she’s walking,
Long before the sun reveals its rays
It’s an army, these bodies
Propping up the world again day
Heading out onto the 405
Everybody’s gotta live their lives
It’s a great day at the Holiday Inn
It’s another day for the invisible friends

He’s kneeling, she’s bending,
Baking in the hot Salinas sun
These berries are ready
Truck is filled, here comes another one
Rolling down off of the 101
Eight more hours and I think we’re done
It’s a fine meal at the Holiday Inn
It’s another day for the invisible friends

I’m hearing, I’m praying
These sounds are only in my head
The ICE men are coming
It’s a moment everybody dreads
Hear the mothers and the children cry
But you can bet no one will see their eyes
It’s a quiet night at the Holiday Inn
It’s another day for the invisible friends

INVISIBLE FRIENDS

He’s waking, she’s walking
Long before the sun begins to shine
He’s cooking, she’s cleaning,
Picking up the mess we leave behind
Heading out onto the 405
Everybody’s gotta live their lives
It’s a great day at the Holiday Inn
It’s another day for the invisible friends
