Black Parade

Waking up on a dead drive down
And once again on the other side
I see the dawn rising in the wrong place
I sense the purpose here has come untied

Caught in a coma and a mouth of debris
Of all the self inflicted pieces I don't wanna see
Sleep walking I forget how to dream
Because I'm just another screw-up to society

How can we know
We've got no place else to go
We are, we are
Living in a steel-toe nation
We are, we are
Working every night and day
We are, we are
Soldiers of our generation
We are, we are
Marching in the black parade

I'm setting up a definitive line
That's separating actuality for what is a lie
I'm tearing down the scene that's causing the haste
Up in this mental suffocation that we are enslaved
I'm in a chaos
I relate through the pain
Of what it's like to be forgotten
Everyone stays the same
To be alive
Feeling trashy and free
Is a rhythm to a drummer
A part of our history

How can we know
We've got no place else to go
We are, we are
Living in a steel-toe nation
We are, we are
Working every night and day
We are, we are
Soldiers of our generation
We are, we are
Marching in the black parade

We are the future of the nation
We are the soldiers of our generation

We are, we are
Living in a steel-toe nation
We are, we are
Working every night and day
We are, we are
Soldiers of our generation
We are, we are
Marching in the black parade

We are marching in the black parade
