Aurelio Voltaire - Parade lyrics

You know it's true we're both the same
In a storm of words we get
Lost in what is said
You know me and you see through me
So why are you confused by the
Things I say and do? Do you know me?

You see the strain upon my face
Please, don't rain on my parade
It comes too light, it comes in waves
It's gone too late
It goes astray, it goes too far and you say
It's clear I know where all your buttons are
It's not so strange, you know
It's not so queer
That I know they're there
'cause I'm the one
Who put them there, exactly as you feared

I know you and I see though you
So why am I surprised by the
Things you say and do? I don't know why

I see the strain upon your face
I won't rain on your parade
It comes too light it comes in waves
It's gone too late

Don't steal the smile from off my face
Please, don't rain on my parade
It comes too light, it comes in waves
It's gone too late

I know that I can't replace you
And it would be a lie to
Say that I could ever try

Don't steal the smile from off my face
Please, don't rain on my parade
It comes too light, it comes in waves
It's gone too late
You see the strain upon my face
Please, don't rain on my parade
It comes too light, it comes in waves
It's gone too late

It's gone too late it cuts two ways
It cuts two ways it's gone too late
