Parallel Lines Lyrics
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 savored by yourself You're never cured If I forgot the lines, is it easy enough to fake it? Or do you need a moment to rememorize And model it like a curse half disguised? Leers, cheers, whispers and the tears That 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 your thoughts You'll hear the final answer Of all the things you were that have been paralleled All the voices that were raised and finally fell Leers, cheers, whispers and tears That 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 sets That's all you get No waits No calls No written tests for what you know Leers, cheers, whispers and tears That 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 |

I think it's "With a lot more punctuation" instead of "Will mumble punctuation". But to be fair this line is really hard to hear.
Also, this is just guessing, but "Or silent through the verse" sounds to me like "Or sliding through the verse". Because "punctuation" in that line connotes that the person speaking is actually saying something.
"You're never cured" instead of "Your never cure" because the latter makes no sense and there's an audible syllable at the end of cure.
"Leers, cheers, whispers and the tears" instead of "Leers, cheers, whispers and tears". There's clearly a "the" before tears.
"That final taste before you're taken away" instead of "The final taste...". Same with this, it's clearly "That" instead of "The".
Anyway, just my thoughts.

No Lights, No Show, No Sex, That's all you get.
I think it's someone who's not getting all of what they should be getting from their significant other. Not really getting to know the person as a whole, not knowing how they really truly feel...
