Promenade Lyrics


There was smoke in the air
When it came around and saw
He was really alone
Memories look like blood in the water
Sweeter than pain
Just like confetti in the rainHe was known for his bedside manners
He wanted to believe
That people only hear what they see
He had a good time being the bad guy
He didn't wanna understand why
That old song makes him cryI remember when it felt like
We were walking with God
Little heaven when the sun goes down
Walking hand in hand down
On the promenadeHe was alone in a dark room
Overlooking the mall
With a gun in his hand and no one to call
He was waiting for a reason to fade and run

Just like photos in a window
That turn blue in the sunPeople used to call it a breakdown
Now we've made a case to make it go away
People used to call it a mid-life crisis
He just sits there, looks at pictures of himself
From way back in the dayRemember when it felt like
We were walking with God
Getting stupid in a stolen car
Making love in the garage
Behind the promenadeI think I need to slow down
I think I need to slow my roll
I need to put the gun down
I feel so lost, I feel so out of controlI broke myself in pieces to make my name
I broke those people dumb enough to get in my way
Now I look in the mirror and I can't see me
I can't even swallow the world and still be hungryRemember when it felt like
We were walking with God
Holding hands with my dad and my mom
Walking in the life to see Santa
On the promenadeRemember when it felt like
We were walking with God
Remember when it felt like
We were walking with God
Remember, rememberRemember when it felt like
We were walking with God
Remember when it felt like
We were walking with God

Everclear is a rock band formed in Portland, Oregon, USA, in 1992. For most of its existence, Everclear consisted of Art Alexakis (b. 12 April 1962, Los Angeles, California, USA; vocals, guitar), Craig Montoya (b. 14 September 1970; bass, vocals) and Greg Eklund (b. 18 April 1970; drums). Eklund replaced original drummer Scott Cuthbert in 1994. Montoya and Eklund departed the band in 2003, but Alexakis has continued performing as Everclear with a new lineup.

After a solo tour in the fall of 2003, Alexakis decided to continue with Everclear, organizing a new band that made its debut in March of 2004. The new lineup consisted of bass player Sam Hudson, guitarist Dave French, and drummer Eric Bretl. In the summer of 2004, the band added keyboard player Josh Crawley, and swapped Bretl for former Everclear drum tech Brett Snyder. The new lineup released its first recording, a cover of Woody Guthrie's This Land Is Your Land, that summer. A self-released EP of performances recorded for XM Satellite Radio called Closure was given out at shows in the fall of 2004.

Free of a major label, Alexakis spent the ensuing year and half slowly recording material for a new Everclear release. He admitted that the time after the breakup of the original lineup served as a "wake up call", during which he suffered his third divorce and a filing for bankruptcy. Alexakis announced the completion of the album in early 2006,titled Welcome To The Drama Club. The new band is now on Eleven Seven Music.

In August of 2008, drummer Brett Snyder left the band after four years. He was then replaced by Tommy Stewart, who previously played in bands Fuel and Godsmack.
