Parallel Lines
Neil LoRé - 3:17
A look at a society (ours!) that has, in my opinion, put the blinders on (of course I include myself in all of the social criticism songs). It seems to me that, as time goes by, people are becoming more and more self-absorbed. This is a powerful Rock song with strong vocal work from Mike Gacek of "Wilder Road" on the song's bridge. Jodee helps out again with searing Electric Guitar riffs; you can feel the heat!
In traffic jams & ticket lines or riding on the bus;
Cubicles, like Rubik's Cube, contain each ones of us.
Millions of people hanging clothes out on the line,
Neighbor to neighbor, we're parallel lines, parallel lives.
Charlatan, Samaritan, or friend out getting high.
Family ties and lonely sighs, we're parallel lines, parallel lives.
Blame it on industry, blame it on theology, they've bought and sold your mind.
No more businessman, no more preacher man, they lay parallel lines.
Secret thoughts and fantasy, we hold them all inside.
Secret thoughts of deep blue seas, we're parallel lines.
