My nervous system is tangled jewelry
The harder I try, the tighter the knots in me
I want to hide yet I wear it on my sleeve
A neon sign, desperate to be seen
To find a parallel universe
To share what heals and name what hurts
Comparing notes is an act of love
Darkness bites, we laugh as if it doesn't
Making light of the heaviness of burdens
No, it may not change a thing
But my lungs fill up with oxygen
For a moment I get to forget
All of my existential frets
In this parallel universe
We share what heals and name what hurts
Comparing notes is an act of love
When everything is so much
And the best of me is all used up
To fall apart is an act of trust
It's been forever, time sure unraveled quick
Pick up the thread as if it never did
Making room, even if just for a minute
Fall back in tune 'til the dissonance vanishes
It may not change a thing
But my lungs fill up with oxygen
For a moment we get to forget
All of our existential frets
In our parallel universe
We share what heals and name what hurts
Comparing notes is an act of love
Parallel universe
We share what heals and name what hurts
Comparing notes is an act of love
When everything is so much
And the best of you is all used up
To fall apart is an act of trust
To fall apart is an act of love
