Parallel Lines Lyrics
If you found the words
Would you really say them?
Or silent through the verse
Will mumble punctuation?Remembering the line
An empty metaphor
That you savor by yourself
Your never cureIf I forgot the lines
Is it easy enough to fake it?
Or do you need a moment to memorize
And model it like a curse half disguised?Leers, cheers, whispers and tears
The final taste before you're taken away
Odds, ends, final amends
It's all right to say it
Just as long as you don't really think soGive me a little room
To get on with concentration
Just enough to know
What I'm missing in educationBorrowing all the hours that you gave to me
It's a wonder I could ever breathe
Under all our thoughts
You'll hear the final whisperOf all the things you are that have been paralleled
All the voices that were raised and finally fellLeers, cheers, whispers and tears
The final taste before you're taken away
Odds, ends, final amends
It's all right to say it
Just as long as you don't really think soNo lights, no show, no sex
That's all you get
No wait, no calls
No remittance for what you knowLeers, cheers, whispers and tears
The final taste before you're taken away
Odds, ends, final amends
It's all right to say it
Just as long as you don't really think soLeers, cheers, whispers and tears
The final taste before you're taken away
Odds, ends, final amends
It's all right to say it
Just as long as you don't really think soLeers, cheers, whispers and tears
The final taste before you're taken away
Odds, ends, final amends
It's all right to say it
Just as long as you don't really think soLeers, cheers, whispers and tears
The final taste before you're taken away
Odds, ends, final amends
It's all right to say it
Just as long as you don't really think soLeers, cheers, whispers and tears
The final taste before you're taken away
Odds, ends, final amends
It's all right to say it
Just as long as you don't really think so
