Crimson Parade
Lyrics
Verse
Marching through paper streets
Dreams folded at my feet
The air tastes of rusted rain
I close my eyes again
Chorus
Crimson parade, drag me down
Through the wreckage of my youth
Drums of war shake the ground
But never tell the truth
Never tell the truth
Verse
The seams were sutured to my soul
Every salute a toll
Paid to beauty's slow decay
That kept my hands away
Chorus
Crimson parade, drag me down
Through the wreckage of my youth
Drums of war shake the ground
But never tell the truth
Never tell the truth
Bridge
If beauty is a weapon
Then I am the wound
If love is a procession
I'll be the one unmoved
Chorus
Crimson parade, pull me under
Through the ashes of my youth
Lightning splits the thunder
But I've forgotten truth
I've forgotten truth
Outro
Crimson parade..
