Staind - Rainy Day Parade Lyrics


Staind Lyrics

Rainy Day Parade Lyrics
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

Rainy Day Parade Info:

• According to Aaron Lewis (ArtistDirect) 'That's an angry track. I'm sick of hearing people complain about this country. I'm over it. Travel anywhere else in the frickin' world and then come back to the United States, you won't complain so much.'

• Michael Mushok, Jonathan Wysocki, Aarron Lewis, & John April share writing credits on the song from the album 'The Illusion of Progress'.
