Lyrics to Parallel World



There's a shadow on my heart

And I don't enjoy the time we spend apart

I'm not sure where you are

Dishes pile up in the sink

I'm not giving myself time or space to think

I wish I was living in



A parallel world where time is gently rolling by

Everyone sees eye to eye

We're not leading separate lives



We're not even getting near

There are hills to climb but no one's changing gear

Can we move on from here?

With a lack of blinding prose

I chew on my words but I think that you know

It's time we just let it go



To a parallel world where time is gently rolling by

Everyone sees eye to eye

We're not leading separate lives



So stop for a minute

I'm about to reach my limit

This is real and we're stuck with it

I'd take the chance if you'd give it

To reach a solution

A happier conclusion

How long can we go on

When none of this makes any sense at all



Thoughts like that whizz around my head

So I red card myself straight into bed

Sleep is a chance to dream



Of a parallel world where things always go just as planned

Happiness is gift wrapped and

Everyone knows where they stand



Of a parallel world where time is gently rolling by

Everyone sees eye to eye

We're not leading separate lives



So stop for a minute...
