In a world of last teardrop
In a world of last teardrop
You know it sounds so good
Sounds so good
Well, you know it sounds so good
You hope it never stops
Never, never, never stops
Never, never, never, never, stops

If you hear sounds of bitter weeping
To be sure the God of Light is sleeping
No time for mirth
Much death and birth
Pain shakes the earth
You hope it never stops
Never, never stops
Never, never, never, never stops
With the time your illusive man's gone
Oh, yeah

The soft parade has now begun
Listen to the engines' hum
Gentle streets where people play
It was meant to be that way
All our lives we sweat and save
Digging for a shallow grave
Welcome to the soft parade, yeah

Welcome to the soft parade
It was meant to be that way
Gentle streets where people play
Working for a shallow grave
All our lives we sweat and save
It was meant to be that way
Welcome to the soft parade

The soft parade has now begun, woah
Listen to the engines' hum
Gentle streets where people play
It was meant to be that way
All our lives we sweat and save
Digging for a shallow grave
Welcome to the soft parade
Welcome to the soft parade
Welcome to the soft parade
Welcome to the soft parade, yeah!

In a world of last teardrops
In a world of last teardrops
You know it sounds so good
Sounds so good
Well, you know it sounds so good
You hope it never stops
Never, never, never stops
Never, never, never, never

And if you hear sounds of bitter weeping
To be sure the God of Light is sleeping
No time for mirth
Much death and birth
Pain shakes the earth
You hope it never stops
Never, never, never, never stops
Never, never, never, never
