So, What Exactly Does It Say?

What are you doing here? It's our parade!
Yeah we built it all up just for us,
and you may join us if you like but you best leave the rest behind.
We got a lot of work and not much trust
toward the gospel of the rising sun.
You see, we believe tomorrow comes
and you may breath your life away a-preaching opportunity
or you can come and drink the blood with us.
They ask, "so what exactly does it say?"
It says, "we all run a naked race
where we look silly, we look strange, but we mostly look the same
horses fleeing from wide open gates."
So, do you think you have what it takes?
It shouldn't matter what outsiders think.
Just like when Adam said to Eve, "No darlin' we don't have to leave.
Are not the gods already mad with me?"
Most of that was just to say
we don't take you too serious
and hope you feel the same way about us
because we got a little hymn
we like to sing instead of drinking
all the poison of Romeo all at once.
It goes like, "I might not see you again,
no I might not see you again,
but I'd like to see you again."
What are you doing here? It's our parade!
Yeah, we got 700 souls and plus.
We got acrobats, magicians, and a woman walking tightrope
with a party at the end of the road
and you may join us if you like
but you best leave the rest behind.
We got a spot left in the choir and they're singing to the sky
you hear it echo from the back of the line.
It goes like, "I might not see you again,
no I might not see you again,
but I'd like to see you again."
And, "We can't see but we pray for pretty eyes,
yeah, we pray for pretty eyes.
And when I die, hope we've already arrived,
hope we've already arrived."
What are you doing here? It's our parade!
Yeah we built it all up just for us
and you may join us if you like but you best leave the rest behind
We got a lot of work and not much trust
toward the gospel of the Rocket Sun.
You see, we believe tomorrow comes.
Just like when Adam heard from Eve, "I'll keep an apple up my sleeve,
we'll plant an Eden and you'll wake with me."
