As I Lay Dying
Parallels
[Verse 1]
We are all comatose
We are overfed and under
Undernourished
Yearning for something more
Never starving
Yet never quite satisfied
Carnal but without
Useful flesh or mind

[Refrain]
I am a walking contradiction
That's found consistency
Consuming everything
All without producing sustenance

[Verse 2]
In the parallels, we struggle
Struggle to upkeep
There is a better way
For us to be set free
From all it is we crave
There must be more to life
Than to simply stay alive
To simply stay alive
[Chorus]
We are not the same
As I hope to show
There is a better way
If we just let go
We are not
We are not the same
We are not
We are not the same...
Let go

[Verse 3]
In the tension between
Devouring want or simple need
It's clear the only lines
Between the ones we preserve

[Chorus]
We are not the same
As I hope to show
There is a better way
If we just let go
We are not
We are not the same
We are not
We are not the same...
Let go
[Refrain]
We are not the same

[Bridge]
And in the parallels
We struggle to upkeep
There's a better way for us to be
For us to be set free
And in the parallels (Parallels)
We struggle to upkeep (Struggle to upkeep)
There's a better way for us to be
For us to be set free

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
We are not the same
As I hope to show
There is a better way
If we just let go
We are not
We are not the same
We are not
We are not the same...
Let go
[Outro]
We are not the same
