Background[]
"A Parallel" is an electro trance song featuring SONiKA. It is about a dystopian society where people have access to and use "parallel systems" to get what they want. The song alludes to this being about love where its definition is incorrect: that it's really about one using the other, where they expect the used to feel proud of the one who chose them.
Lyrics[]
Aha.
The complexity of love is something that we believe in
We throw ourselves inside this maze without knowing about it
The explanation of this madness is sometimes out of your mind,
But we're still wasting our time to understand it
I look at the empty dark sky, and I wonder why
The stars are gone, but people are enjoying the night
Everyone is staying in their box,
But is free to touch the sky, and putting themselves in the other dimension.
I was inside the darkness when you tried to reach for me
I was in a confusion, searching for a simple solution
And I still remember that moment
I was hoping you could just stay here as long as the sun shines
I never wanted to have other people around me
They only care about my intelligence and my body
Will they stop using me as one of their source of money
But their heart is too blind to care for the real me
For so long we have been embraced by the beauty of lies
Such colourful words happened to be some disgusting mice
Some things just appear right,
But the truth and the reality just keep haunting
on the other side
Nobody will ever care what my heart wants to love
They always put themselves as someone who I should feel proud of
The idea is simple
I just need to do everything for them and we will be together forever
Life of a parallel
What is there to see
Life of a parallel
What is there to choose
Life of a parallel
There's no way to run
A parallel
System which seems the only way to heaven
Life of a parallel
What is there to see
Life of a parallel
What is there to choose
Life of a parallel
There's no way to run
A parallel
System which seems the only way to heaven
I had a dream of a perfect life...
For you and me.
Flowers were falling down
And we were happy
And the sun was so bright
And the sky was so beautiful
You were sitting next to me
Smiling at me
Promised me that the future
Will be as we dream it to be
The definition of love seems to be out of context
But everyone is happy with the way it is
And then one day everyone will assume,
This is the true meaning of it,
The truth that cannot be changed
Numbers and symbols are loitering inside my mind
every moment is computerized and kept inside
In this vast ocean of data
But no one ever knows why we need to live without being able to fight
For so long, what I want is just being able to see you again
I never care about what really happens around me
I always look at the mirror
Hoping to see myself
Reflected even with
The absence of light
The loneliness is surrounding me once again
The time has come for me to end
This game
But the end won't come
The Hell is already here
And there will be no way out
Life of a parallel
What is there to see
Life of a parallel
What is there to choose
Life of a parallel
There's no way to run
A parallel
System which seems the only way to heaven
Life of a parallel
What is there to see
Life of a parallel
What is there to choose
Life of a parallel
There's no way to run
A parallel
System which seems the only way to heaven
I had a dream of a perfect life...
For you and me.
Flowers were falling down
And we were happy
And the sun was bright
And the sky was so beautiful
You were sitting next to me
Smiling at me
Promised me that the future
Will be as we dream it to be
Life of a parallel
What is there to see
Life of a parallel
What is there to choose
Life of a parallel
There's no way to run
A parallel
System which seems the only way to heaven
Life of a parallel
What is there to see
Life of a parallel
What is there to choose
Life of a parallel
There's no way to run
A parallel
System which seems the only way to heaven
I had a dream of a perfect life...
For you and me.
Flowers were falling down
And we were happy
And the sun was bright
And the sky was so beautiful
You were sitting next to me
Smiling at me
Promised me that the future
Will be as we dream it to be
Flowers were falling down
And we were happy
And the sun was bright
And the sky was so beautiful
You were sitting next to me
Smiling at me
Promised me that the future
Will be as we dream it to be
