Parallel Lines Songtext
von Jasper Sloan Yip

Well, light spills through venetian blinds
Onto my skin and into my eyes
And I wake up from a lovely dream
To a cold bed and the sound of the street
And the used mug on the counter says that you were up and
Then you quietly left me and my body in the arms of sleep
With my nightmares waiting up for me

You could draw the worried look on my face
From memory any day


And you said, "Don′t let me down, but if you must, then
Just get it over with now 'cause I love you
But it′s not my fault that I love you
So don't fuck me up"
Honey, we are parallel lines
The way we don't meet, but we′re side by side
Oh, and one day, it′ll all be black
And some days, I can't wait for that

I could draw the worried look on your face
From memory any day

Oh, and you′ve shown me that all other lights
Will cross paths only once in their lives and then part
Yeah, you've shown me that all other lights
Will cross paths only once in their lives and then part
Yeah, but you′ve shown me that all other lights
Will cross paths only once in their lives and then part
