Gates - Parallel Lives lyrics

we stand beside one another decided to never be close we learn the language of lovers a stranger to all that we know in excess and example how novel the one we regard though we long to resemble we only become who we are we stay entwined with each other but couldn't be further apart we die denying the flutter of fervor we feel in our hearts how uncommon the ember of memory burned and forgot left to always remember that we couldn't be what we're not and all we seem to be are parallel lives caught crossing.
