Parallel Lines

(album: Monsoon - 1988)

It's the twentieth century, it's picking up speed,
Everyone's out for number one,
Creatures of habit, fashion and style,
Not time for love, we're on the run.

Parallel lines, parallel lines,
Moving together but we never touch,
Parallel lines, parallel lines,
That's how you and I live in parallel lines.

Looking for answers, searching for clues,
Some of us get more that we need,
Giving and taking but everybone pays,
Until be are brought down to our knees.

Parallel lines, parallel lines,
Moving together but we never touch,
Parallel lines, parallel lines,
That's how you and I live in parallel lines.

Sometimes I wonder how we ever survive,
Caught in between these parallel lines.
Standing in circles, sitting in ques,
Strictly adhering to our views.

Parallel lines, parallel lines,
Moving together but we never touch,
Parallel lines, parallel lines,
That's how you and I live in parallel lines.
