parallel lines

It's strange to think

You were everything

Gave you every medal

I put you on a pedestal

It was warm

Before the storm

Wind and rain and wrestling

Now the dust is settling

Back then I'd follow you to the end

Somewhere I lost myself

In the high of your tide

And when I took a back seat

I could see it clearly

How much I compromised

And now we walk

On parallel streets

To parallel beats

Headphones on

Different songs

Our paths won't align

Our past left behind

We're moving on

On parallel lines

Parallel lines

Parallel lines

Ooh oh

Uh oh

Ooh oh

It's strange to think

You were everything

Isn't life so beautiful

How we wax and wane and grow

I'm so glad

I felt so sad

Now I can appreciate

How it feels to love again

Back then I'd follow you to the end

Somewhere I lost myself

In the light in your eyes

If I were given the chance

To play the whole thing back

No I know I wouldn't rewind

So now we'll walk

On parallel streets

To parallel beats

Headphones on

Different songs

Our paths won't align

Our past left behind

We're moving on

On parallel lines

Parallel lines

Parallel lines

Ooh oh

Uh oh

Ooh oh

It took a while

But I realized

You were mine

In a parallel life

There's room up ahead

For somebody else

So I'm doing fine

At the thought

Of parallel streets

And parallel beats

Headphones on

Different songs

Our paths won't align

Our past left behind

We're moving on

On parallel lines

Parallel lines

Parallel lines

Farewell, goodbye

Uh oh

Ooh oh
