Plastic Heart Parade

[Verse 1] Scroll-stained fingers Blue glow in our eyes Laugh tracks playing Over planet-sized lies Talking in captions Nobody hears Every bold headline Drowns in a sea of years [Chorus] We are the plastic heart parade Cracked in the cold Still marching in place Everyone’s fine Or that’s what they say While the world burns out in grayscale I scream for help in lowercase Drowned by the static of another day If nothing matters What do we save? Just one small Stubborn flame [Verse 2] Ash on the playground Glass in the grass Kids learn the language Of looking right past News plays on loop Like some old arcade Insert another thought It dies the same damn way [Chorus] We are the plastic heart parade Cracked in the cold Still marching in place Everyone’s fine Or that’s what they say While the world burns out in grayscale I scream for help in lowercase Drowned by the static of another day If nothing matters What do we save? Just one small Stubborn flame [Bridge] Tell me I’m not the only one Who feels the weight of coming undone (hey) Do you ever lie awake Counting all the chances we didn’t take? [Chorus] We are the plastic heart parade Cracked in the cold Still marching in place Everyone’s fine Or that’s what they say While the world burns out in grayscale I scream for help in lowercase Drowned by the static of another day If nothing matters What do we save? I’ll hold this small Stubborn flame
