Description Fools on parade
Cavort and carry on
For waiting eyes
That you would rather be beside than in front of
But she’s never been the kind to be hollowed by the stares

She swam out of tonight’s phantasm
Grabbed my hand and made it very clear
There's absolutely nothing for us here
It's a magnolia celebration to be attended on a Wednesday night
It's better that than get a reputation as a miserable little tyke
At least that’s the conclusion she came to in this overture

And the secret door swings behind us
She’s saying nothing
She’s just giggling along

Her arms were folded most indignant
Not looking like she was soon to leave
I had to squint in order to believe
That like a butler pushing on a bookshelf,
unveiling the unexpected
I, who was earlier reluctant, was
Suddenly embarrassed and corrected
How could such a creature survive in such a habitat

The secret door swings behind us
She's saying nothing
She's just giggling along
And even if they were to find us
I wouldn't notice, I'm completely occupied

At all the fools on parade
Cavort and carry on
For waiting eyes
Ones you would rather be beside than in front of
But she’s never been the kind to be hollowed by the stares
Fools on parade
Frolic and fuck about to make her gaze
Turn to a scribble on a page by a picture
That holds her absence
But you’re daft to think she'd care

Fools on parade
Fools on parade
Fools on parade conduct a sing-along

itreho this is reallly good Kimi, and I can't write critiques, so I'ma just put something here, but its not much, I mean It's a really cool picture, the only thing bothering me is that beefy lookin arm, I mean really, Kimi must work out a lot, impress the ladies, look at that arm, all that muscle, RIPPLEE, lolnoseriouslythough it looks pretty beefy, unless its supposed to be that way, and then I think shes supposed to be looking down and facing forward yes? but then her legs
man like what
where is she standing towards, its like shes walking and her legs are all "THIS WAY" but her upper body says "NOWAITIMLOOKINGATSOMETHING, GET BACK HERE LEGS"
okay no seriously though, like kyo said its a really nice pic and the shading of the background makes it looks 20 percent cooler
just
that
arm
so
much
beef
okimdone

FFFF I know the arm looks terrible orz it's just that it's not supposed to be beef it's supposed to be a wrinkle in her sweatshirt xD; it didn't come out quite the way I'd hoped.
And the torso, if you look, her upper body is facing forward, but her torso is twisted, so she's really facing the side. xD it's hard to explain but I actually make this type of pose irl so I guess it works.
Like if you pay attention to the zipper in her sweatshirt, it starts out in the middle, but then moves more towards where her torso is facing, to define the way her hips are twisted. ;>
TL;DR, she's facing the side, but her upper body is looking at the camera, ie, the "Secret Door" that's supposed to be there.

Hnng, well, whether or not he's a douche doesn't change whether or not I like their music! |D People who have met Alex have said he's pretty arrogant, and it shows a bit in his interviews. :/ I don't really like him as a person, but he's still a great musician.
That's why I prefer The Last Shadow Puppets |D You should look them up, too!
