Adam Tell Parallel
Going ten over the limit when I didn't have a place to be
I was dreaming ‘bout the future, but the present got away from me
I only focused on a measure, and I didn't hear the whole symphony
I didn't hear the beauty
Called my mother, couldn't help her on a crossword question
She's a wordsmith, it's a daily obsession
I wonder if she sees in me her own reflection
Don't wait up for the closure
It won't ring the door bell
We live and then we die, no other order
But we all process each moment in parallel
On the water with dad, hoping we might get a couple bites
But there's a rain coming in, all we're catching is tangled lines
We'll laugh it off, sing a song, and try another time
Don't wait up for the closure
It won't ring the door bell
We live and then we die, no other order
But we all process each moment in parallel
I don't deserve this
So many blessings on my plate
I gotta keep the most important thing straight
Big brother's on, gonna log in and play a few
Hundreds of miles away, and we're right back in the groove
He's a constant even when I don't know what to do
