No More Parades Lyrics - Son Volt

Don't know if your carin', truth is worth tearin' though we're miles apart. 

Front door leavin's the way I've been feelin' 20 days overboard. 

[Chorus] 

That's the way the hinge turns, just half way round 

Believe it all first, finally flickers out 

No mood anymore, hold up, hammer down the stake 

No more parades 

Got to know a friend with a think tank and a farm and you couldn't ask for better. 

Works on dreams inside of her schemes, lives like the words in a song. 

[Chorus] 

A pesticide moon hangs, cold coffee and tears flowin' out of the brain. 

Should a caught the bus, should a pulled in line, should a made up for that 

Down time. 

[Chorus]
