Parading through loneliness
Pleading for a friend
Advertising all of my bad memories
Reminiscent of the things they've said

Sporting my banner
My flag fluttering high
Imprinted a logo
"Tears Never Dry"

I march and I march
Towards what I "thought" was heaven
Everything white
Isn't always innocent

Everything that has wings
Doesn't always soar


Guardian angels

Or demons...


It doesn't matter

They are all in disguise

Hiding the most important thing
Out of the sight
Of sorrowful eyes...
