Parallax

The film you think you're living in

I might request a pseudonym

If I could look through your lens

Maybe it then would make sense


So hard to see what's wrong or right

What should I use as my insight?

Is it my heart or my mind?

Impulse or one open eye?


The distance

Between us

Is twice what

It has been as

Conflicted

Objectives

All collide


Life is not a script

You directed

Every angle fits

Your perspective

Take one, take two

Life is not a script

You perfected

Twist the plot to fix

Your perspective

Take one, take two

Take three, four

And one more


As people we remain the same

Don't let perceptions bring disdain

Although from where I am sat

You see your fiction as fact'


A silence over breakfast plates

I hide the bread knife just in case

I disagree on the shot

Or hit another blind spot


Believe me

It's not fair

I'm caught in

Your crosshairs

Oh, so hopeless

Don't focus

On one truth'


I should be taking a side

It's just so hard to decide


Reframe, reshoot

Background, changed view

Credits roll
