melancholy parade - mary spender lyrics
[verse 1]
i saw lines of soldiers returning home
wearing wooden overcoats
melancholy parade
can you see the difference that they’ve made?
[pre*chorus]
no more gods and no more masters
take the deaths and put them past us
scattered voices strike a chord
put your guns down and sheath your swords
put your guns down and sheath your swords
[chorus]
i began to look
closely at my skin
and realised the stars and stripes
were seeping in
i saw a bunch of colours
and they did my eyes some harm
only then did i comprehend
that i was in charge
[verse 2]
i saw towers fall
and people die
i saw the hunt for terror
and the terrified
melancholy state
people moving constantly afraid
[pre*chorus]
no more gods and no more masters
take the deaths and put them past us
scattered voices strike a chord
put your guns down and sheath your swords
put your guns down and sheath your swords
[chorus]
i began to look
closely at my skin
and realised the stars and stripes
were seeping in
i saw a bunch of colours
and they did my eyes some harm
only then did i comprehend
that i was in charge
i was in charge
i was in charge
(hm)
[interlude]
[chorus]
i began to look
closely at my skin
and realised the stars and stripes
were seeping in
i saw a bunch of colours
and they did my eyes some harm
only then did i comprehend
that i was in charge
