It's five in the morning
She's got blood on her skin
Se cannot hide
The condition she's in
No secret or pills will ever fix her
She's constantly moving
Slipping further away

Her pale green eyes
They see straight through you
You feel her clear and close
Don't you
Go on, go on, go on
And follow her now
And you'll go down with her

She leads the parade
With bruises on her face
she leads the parade
she lost her faith
She leads the parade
Cause she knows no better way

She's got time to kill
Playing tricks on your mind
She'sgot all that she needs
And wants nothing from you now
The crowd is still just waiting
For her next move
They're on stand by
But she's got nothing to prove

She leads the parade
With bruises on her face
she leads the parade
she lost her faith
She leads the parade
Cause she knows no better way
