You the great pretenders, blood to paint your pictures
While you’re stepping over fallen people lying in the streets
You the great offenders, only your views matter
While your heart grows colder, I wish that you could open up and feel
For a while see if you can take it
Feel, you’re alive and this is all part of it
Feel, could it be that we’re all afraid
'Cause it feels like a rainy day parade
We the great believers, blood is legal tender
I will not surrender what it was our fathers died to bear
We the people stated, not negotiated
Just to be forgotten, I wish that you could open up and see
For a while see if you can take it
See, you’re alive and this is all part of it
See, can’t you see that we’re all afraid
‘Cause it seems like a rainy day parade
What I see is all too real
What I need is what you steal
And all I reap is what you take
Upon my back on which you break
I just wish that we could rise above and feel
For a while see if you can take it
Feel, you’re alive and this is all part of it
Feel could it be that we’re all afraid
‘Cause it feels like a rainy day parade

Staind Lyrics : Rainy Day Parade
Staind Lyrics : The Corner
It sheltered me from nothing but the weather
I called it home for a moment of my life
This place I see just doesn't look familiar
I wonder if it looks the same inside
So there's the corner that I sat on
The road I walked home in the rain
And there's the star I used to wish on
It all just seems like yesterday
Days go by
Nothing's getting clearer
Can't change my mind
My troubles are the same
Faces change
The names they are familiar
And the streets I see
Will stand the test of time
So there's the corner that I sat on
The road I walked home in the rain
And there's the star I used to wish on
It all just seems like yesterday
And those stars
Stars still shine
Shine down through the rain
And there's the corner that I sat on
The road I walked home in the rain
And there's the star I used to wish on
It all just seems like yesterday
And I stare out this dirty window
As this world goes slowly by
And somewhere out there is the future
That I once thought had passed me by
Sheltered me from nothing but the weather
Staind Lyrics : Nothing Left To Say
Talk to me
You never
Talk to me
Do we suffer
From
Social atrophy
And when the conversation's over
When the conversation's over
We've taken what's been given
And we throw it all away
Walk with me
Come on and
Walk with me
Take a look
Around you
Do you like
What you see
We've taken what's been given
And we throw it all away
It's hard to be forgiven
When there's nothing left to say
When the conversation's over
The silence just gets in the way
Conversation's over
Talk to me
Don't ever
Talk for me
We've taken what's been given
And you throw it all away
It's hard to be forgiven
When there's nothing left to say
There's nothing left to say
