Go on parade and fade Hit the scene in slow Spending all your time with some girl You'll never get to know Wound up tight Dressed all in white Some torment saint Blowing out to drift Leave you even if You live up in your head Scared of every little noise Someone's always breaking in accidentally Using nothing but their voice Shrill and small Echo down the hall Repeating pet names Seeing it in your eyes You're only passing by Go by Someone's in the way Pretty words and inside slurs All the things they have to say To perform the work that they've rehearsed It's a waste of time I put it behind me Once and for all And let the hype decline If the problem wasn't mine Go by
