The streets are so dark and dire
What are we doing here...
A strong cup and a smile
Or maybe just disappear...

Seeking asylum from
a shade that you cant unsee
White light clouds my head
I’m Diving in too deep...

Words they elude me now...
You take 'em right away 
Why is the one that led you here...
Lookin the other way

We’re far away from home
oh so far away we roam
So far away...here to stay
Oh so far away from home...

What are you thinking now 
Behind that vacant stare
The weight of the world somehow
upon your face so fair...

Words they confuse me now...
You take 'em right away 
Why is the one that led you here
Lookin the other way...

The streets are so dark and dire...
What are we doing here

I'M TIRED

Crash (25/8) By The Welcome Parade

Just echoes in my mind
So much is lost in time
Language sold to the dollar
Cause your king needs food and wine

Crash 25/8
We ain't gonna die
Die that way

Control is everything
Then there's nothing left to lose
Language sold to the pound
Just let me know ill write them fucking down

Crash 25/8
We ain't gonna die
Die that way

Notes: 
The leading track off the debut album for The Welcome Parade. An indie effort through and through with a group of people who wanted to make some noise.  

This was the last song in for the album and it show cases what 8 months of working together has changed.  Jay sent this out, with a description of his vision.  I think both Thom and I were floored and a bit dazed, as we tried to get our footing on this beast. 

I think this is the first time Jay uniformly received push back from both of us.  The things he wanted changed, simply refused. He had nailed such a strong performance in every spot he occupied.  

We had our first all hands meeting yesterday as a band and everyone got a few laughs out of this piece.  Jay's story about his voice being hoarse 2 days after recording this.  Thom's story "I am not sure I want to play on this".  Jeff's refusing to do backing vocals "How the f**k do I do better than what you already did, no absolutely not".

A fellowship of music lovers with a penchant for something honest out of our work.  I hope you will join me in supporting The Welcome Parade(@thewelcomeparade).  

Peace and love my friends and here's to a happy and hopeful 2021!
