Funeral Day Parade Lyrics

And the marching of our feet,
lulls the city to sleep
As we watch in wonder
A white flag surrender,
to an endless summer
When right now is all we know,
living for right now is all we know

There she goes,
dressed to impress please don't disconnect
The lines through the crucifix,
a fiend for the dial tone fix
There she goes,
slept fully dressed
coffee and cigarettes
The catalyst to forget,
that regrets are useless

Dancing on the ashes of the empire,
dancing on the graves of our enemies
This is the last time that it feels like the first time
Smoke stacks exhale in excess,
the backdrop for youthful excess
We were young and we were brave
but courage can't save us from another day of misery,
slip like memory

The funeral day parade marches on,
through these streets of dying
and here we are still trying
There she goes
slept fully dressed
coffee and cigarettes
The catalyst to forget,
that regrets are useless

We're so sick of being sick of
we're so tired of being tired

There she goes,
dressed to impress please don't disconnect
The lines through the crucifix,
a fiend for the dial tone fix
There she goes,
slept fully dressed
coffee and cigarettes
The catalyst to forget,
that regrets are useless
