Lyrics for Dark Parade
He looks up Straight ahead Theres something there Now it's gone Is it a bird Or an aeroplane Just like a thought It's there Then it's gone Over sea And over sand In the deserted heart Of a desert land Rotor blades Like a charred palm trees Signify No success No release Is it eight Or is it nine Who fall in For the very last time There is no rest No release At the oasis These men Reduced to this The darkest parade
