Parallel World

“Parallel World is a song about infatuation. Being the ‘other woman’ is a tumultuous position to be in; desperately trying to prove yourself to the love interest in order to convince them you are the right option, whilst also battling with a compromised conscience and an aching heart. It’s a song about vulnerability, but also power; the power of determination and the power of love.”

Verse 1.
I don’t mind being your guilty pleasure for a while
You can call me I make good conversation
I don’t mind standing in the shadows for a while
Watching you enjoy the situation

Verse 2.
I don’t mind that you’re gonna stay with her for now
Even it’s not where you belong
I don’t mind being the lonely victim for a while
Gives me a reason to write this song

Pre-chorus
But I’m warning you baby, I won’t be down for long
I never lose my battles; I’m far too strong
And eventually baby, I’m gonna show you this is real
I’m not afraid to raise my voice and tell you how I feel

Chorus
‘Cause even though you say that I’m your perfect woman
You also say you’re happy with your girl
And even though you say that you’re happy with your woman
You’d love me in a parallel world

Verse 3.
I don’t mind that you promise to show but you never come around
It just makes me want you more
I don’t mind that I’m kidding myself with this fantasise I’ve found
Hoping you’ll walk straight through that door

Verse 4.
I don’t mind that you pretend it’s a game and I’m leading you along
Oh when you know it’s so much more
I don’t mind that I’m feeling so weak but I’m pretending to be strong
Even I can act self-assured

Pre-chorus
And I’m warning you baby, I won’t be down for long
I never lose my battles; I’m far too strong
And eventually baby, I’m gonna show you this is real
I’m not afraid to raise my voice and tell you how I feel

Chorus
‘Cause even though you say that I’m your perfect woman
You also say you’re happy with your girl
And even though you say that you’re happy with your woman
You’d love me in a parallel world

Middle 8
Woaah, oh baby I know that if you were asked to choose
She would win the prize and I would surely lose
But if you’d give me a chance to show you how we could be
I know you’d walk away from her and you’d run away with me

Chorus
‘Cause even though you say that I’m your perfect woman
You also say you’re happy with your girl
And even though you say that you’re happy with your woman
You’d love me in a parallel world
You’d love me in a parallel world
You’d love me in a parallel world
