Bubba Kadane - Parade lyrics

I wiped away the sweat on my face And I looked around the room There was nothing out of place But nothing was happening too soon I could see the empty chair Leaning against its shadow Even though there was nothing there There was something in my eyes followed Like marks across the sky Erased as they're made I could see people going by Through the moonlit shade But no one stopped to look Through the blinds on the window I guess they all took Me for someone they don't know A parade falls apart When the music slows down When the streets are in knots But there's no one left in town When the sweat leaves your face And the fear leaves your knees And you live in this place Where you live with complete ease
