Parallel Lines Lyrics - Begone Dull Care - Junior Boys

If you found the words 

Would you really say them? 

Or silent through the verse 

Will mumble punctuation? 

Remembering the line 

An empty metaphor 

That you savor by yourself 

Your never cure 

If I forgot the lines 

Is it easy enough to fake it? 

Or do you need a moment to memorize 

And model it like a curse half disguised? 

Leers, cheers, whispers and tears 

The final taste before you're taken away 

Odds, ends, final amends 

It's all right to say it 

Just as long as you don't really think so 

Give me a little room 

To get on with concentration 

Just enough to know 

What I'm missing in education 

Borrowing all the hours that you gave to me 

It's a wonder I could ever breathe 

Under all our thoughts 

You'll hear the final whisper 

Of all the things you are that have been paralleled 

All the voices that were raised and finally fell 

Leers, cheers, whispers and tears 

The final taste before you're taken away 

Odds, ends, final amends 

It's all right to say it 

Just as long as you don't really think so 

No lights, no show, no sex 

That's all you get 

No wait, no calls 

No remittance for what you know 

Leers, cheers, whispers and tears 

The final taste before you're taken away 

Odds, ends, final amends 

It's all right to say it 

Just as long as you don't really think so 

Leers, cheers, whispers and tears 

The final taste before you're taken away 

Odds, ends, final amends 

It's all right to say it 

Just as long as you don't really think so 

Leers, cheers, whispers and tears 

The final taste before you're taken away 

Odds, ends, final amends 

It's all right to say it 

Just as long as you don't really think so 

Leers, cheers, whispers and tears 

The final taste before you're taken away 

Odds, ends, final amends 

It's all right to say it 

Just as long as you don't really think so 

Leers, cheers, whispers and tears 

The final taste before you're taken away 

Odds, ends, final amends 

It's all right to say it 

Just as long as you don't really think so
