You stand by the door
Black suit
Silk tie
Your hair is parted straight
Like an old film
I wear my plastic skirt
My boots are heavy
We do not fit
The air is thick
It is too loud here
(Tick-tock)
You look at your watch
(Tick-tock)
It has a ticking hand
Mine is just a screen
We are not the same
Parallel worlds
(Parallel)
Walking on the same floor
Parallel worlds
(Parallel)
But I cannot touch your hand
Parallel worlds
(Parallel)
Which year is it for you?
You order a drink
Clear glass
No ice
I drink from a blue can
Very fast
You bow your head
I just nod
The music hits the wall
It is 2024
Is it 1950 for you?
Parallel worlds
(Parallel)
Walking on the same floor
Parallel worlds
(Parallel)
But I cannot touch your hand
Parallel worlds
(Parallel)
Which year is it for you?
Step left
Step right
Stop
Look back
(Look back)
The light hits the dust
You are fading
(Fading)
I am staying
(Staying)
Don’t go yet
Parallel worlds
(Parallel)
Walking on the same floor
Parallel worlds
(Parallel)
But I cannot touch your hand
Parallel worlds
(Parallel)
Which year is it for you?
(Parallel)
(Parallel)
I see you
Then I don't
