Rainy Day Parade Lyrics - Staind

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 

[Chorus] 

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 negotiate 

Just to be forgotten, I wish that you could open up and see 

[Chorus] 

What I see is all to 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 

[Chorus]
