​ Her words were apologetic And all I felt was apathy Those lips drew lines that paralleled mine She told me that it was her fault But I could taste the pity Laced with traces of my failure And eventually these lines collide Yet parallels should never cross Leading us into this paradox Where you will sleep fine While I stay awake all night And no matter how hard I try I will never feel rested again.

Parallels
​ Her words were apologetic And all I felt was apathy Those lips drew lines that paralleled mine She told me that it was her fault But I could taste the pity Laced with traces of my failure And eventually these lines collide Yet parallels should never cross Leading us into this paradox Where you will sleep fine While I stay awake all night And no matter how hard I try I will never feel rested again.
