[Verse 1: Alex Yarmak, Sharon den Adel]
Hands tight, the tide has turned and you know it
Burned down, 'cause no one's buying your story
Can't hide the gallows waiting to hold you
You're nevermore, you're nevermore

[Pre-Chorus: Sharon den Adel & Alex Yarmak]
The cross of love the wrench of reliance
Or shall I weigh all the shame
I don't need your praise or your blame
It's only how it fits your game

[Chorus: Sharon den Adel & Alex Yarmak, Alex Yarmak]
So shut your face
Stop pretending like you don't know
When all is said you're still searching ways to burn my name
I hate your face your crusade is just a fool's parade, a fool's parade A fool's parade
So shut your facе your crusade is just a fool's parade
A fool's parade

[Verse 2: Alex Yarmak, Sharon den Adel]
Don't liе, don't pretend to be sorry
Sweet smiles, while dominos keep falling
No doubt, it's all for your own glory
Your perfect storm, your perfect storm

[Pre-Chorus: Sharon den Adel & Alex Yarmak]
The cross of love the wrench of reliance
Or shall I weigh all the shame
I don't need your praise or your blame

[Chorus: Sharon den Adel & Alex Yarmak]
So shut your face
Stop pretending like you don't know
When all is said you're still searching ways to burn my name
I hate your face your crusade is just a fool's parade, a fool's parade, A fool's parade

[Breakdown: Alex Yarmak]
(You will not make me)
Doubt myself
You even don't know who you are
So don't blame the ones around you

[Chorus: Sharon den Adel & Alex Yarmak, Alex Yarmak]
So shut your face
Stop pretending like you don't know
When all is said you're still searching ways to burn my name
I hate your face your crusade is just a fool's parade, a fool's parade
A fool's parade

[Outro: Sharon den Adel & Alex Yarmak, Alex Yarmak]
A fool's parade
A fool's parade
A fool's parade
