My Friend Detroit can't seem to keep up
Tell me 'bout it man, neither can I
But I still avoid sleeping in the summertime
While you cut ties longer than (I-)75

In this basement, a steady climate
You're the variable

The wind isn't bringing anything in
That isn't sun behind that shade
Only rain on your own parade

I'd bring over aspiring clergy
If I was allowed in your home
So you could explain what it's like
To spend the rest of your life alone

In this basement, a steady climate
You are the variable 

The wind isn't bringing anything in 
Only rain on your own parade
Only rain on your own parade
Only rain on your own... 

The big difference between you and me 
Is understanding the word "alive"
It's more than deep breaths and blinking eyes
We may struggle, but at least we try

The wind isn't bringing anything in
(That isn't sun) behind the shade
Only rain on your own parade 
The wind isn't bringing anything in
That isn't sun behind the shade
Only rain on your own parade
Only rain on your own parade
Only rain on your own parade

The wind isn't bringing anything in
