lyrics

Did you ever wonder what it would be like
To reverse everything
See it from the other side of the turnstile
Where you've already paid your price
All that's left to do is enjoy the ride ?

Did you ever try imagining another place
On another identical world
Out in another space
At first it all appears to be the same
But when you get a closer look
You'll see that's not the case ?

Take me on a trip to that parallel world
The version of me where all my dreams came true
I gave you all the things that I promised you
And I didn't let you down at every turn
Yeah, take me on a trip to that parallel universe
Where I wrote that magic verse
That made my life exactly how I dreamed it could be
Maybe I could learn from that other me

Just imagine living like that
No stress, no fear to hold you back
No risk of losing it all
'Cause nobody at all wants to take it

Everybody's happy about everybody else's success stories
No jealousy to poison the path
All everybody wants to do is just
Laugh and smile, smile and laugh

Take me on a trip to that parallel world
The version of me where all my dreams came true
I gave you all the things that I promised you
And I didn't let you down at every turn
Yeah, take me on a trip to that parallel universe
Where I wrote that magic verse
That made my life exactly how I dreamed it could be
Maybe I could learn from that other me

The more you look around, the more you see
The differences from our own reality
Take note of the air you breathe
It's as pure as it was once way back in history

And water is the only thing dividing the land
A land respected by a joining of hands in unity
Try and understand, it's within us all
If we let it be

So join me on a trip to that parallel world
The version of us where all our dreams came true
We've accomplished everything we set out to do
And we didn't let down all of the innocent youth
So join me on a trip to that parallel universe
Where we sang together in verse
To celebrate simplicity of togetherness
Maybe we could learn from that other us
