sleeping on a time bomb, staring into space there's an ocean of
unpleasantries we are not prepared to face sitting on the fence
post to watch the storm roll in and terrified of the damage it
will bring when it begins it will begin splintered dreams of unity
(our lives are parallel) so far from reality (our lives are parallel)
independent trajectories (our lives are parallel) separate terms of
equality (our lives are parallel) our lives are parallel is there
no redemption? no common good? is there nothing we can do for
ourselves? or only what we should? comes the hard admission of
what we don't provide goes the insistence on the ways and means
that so divide they so divide side by side suffering loneliness
(our lives are parallel) phoney collective progress (our lives
are parallel) accepting that it's all such a mess (our lives are
parallel) gesturing without hope of redress (our lives are
parallel) our lives are parallel forging little plays of deception
and pain as we watch our foundation crumble away staggering like
birds against a hurricane and trying all the while to stay out of
each other's way broken dreams of unity (our lives are parallel)
independent trajectories (our lives are parallel) screaming out
for understanding (our lives are parallel) turning inward and
suffering (our lives are parallel)
