Carl Allocco - Parade

Looks like the coast is clear, I'll pack my bag and disappear
And I won't come back here until I can be civil
An old dear friend of mine has turned into Frankenstein
And I neither have the time nor strength to solve the riddle
And all the roads left unpaved, detours along the way

Ain't it funny how people come and people go
And in and out they fade
They're here and gone, life marches on
We watch them walk away
Like a parade
Like a parade

Looks like you'll have to wait to find the next best candidate
One who'll always take the bait and not ask any questions
Someone, someday, you'll find
Who'll build your bridge and paint your sign
Help leave your limbo days behind
Who'll make the right suggestions
And all of the plans you've changed
Pieces of hope you've rearranged

We raise our banners, we wave our hands
Slip into the crowd to make our stands...

Looks like the day has come for celebrating everyone
But step by step, we hear the drum and rival to its rhythm
We take rejection hard; the compliments, we disregard
Then promenade the boulevard as the yet to be forgiven
You keep having your dreams repaved
But you won't find your shadow in the shade
