PARALLEL WORLDS

The treason of lovers
a reason for others
to run and hide away

The courage to distress
the nightlife to assess
who was right anyway

Leave a light on
We're living in a parallel world
We're living in this parallel dream
And I want to know
if there is life on the other side
So leave your life on
I see you in your parallel world
I feel you in my parallel dream




And I want to know
if there is life on the other side

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Felix Marc's song Parallel Worlds speak to the idea of multiple paths and realities in life. The first two lines, "The treason of lovers, a reason for others to run and hide away," suggests that betrayal in romantic relationships can cause people to avoid love altogether. This may be because they fear getting hurt again or because they feel guilty for causing pain to their partner. The next lines, "The courage to distress, the nightlife to assess, who was right anyway," imply that it takes bravery to confront the emotions that come with heartbreak. The nightlife may be a way to escape these feelings, but eventually, one must face their thoughts and determine who was at fault in the relationship.


The chorus continues the idea of parallel worlds and dreams, as the singer declares, "Leave a light on / We're living in a parallel world / We're living in this parallel dream / And I want to know if there is life on the other side / So leave your life on / I see you in your parallel world / I feel you in my parallel dream / And I want to know if there is life on the other side." The repetition of "parallel" suggests that there are different versions of the world, and the singer wants to know what exists beyond their own reality. The "light" may symbolize the hope that there is more to life than what they currently see.
