Parallel Universe

I crashed my car on Tuesday
Sat on the side of the highway
And beat myself up for an hour
I picked a fight with my mom
For something that I did wrong
And cried about it in the shower

And it's been one of these weeks where
I don't know what I want
And it's making me think that I've done everything wrong
Is there a version of me who did things differently?
And if you're out there, I wonder

Did you get rich and famous from that part that I turned down?
Did you have a couple kids and did you stay in our hometown?
Did you sleep with lots of people, try cocaine on your 21st
Are you happy is it better is it worse
In a parallel universe

I know it's in my nature to think there's something greater
Than what I got in front of me
Is there a bigger purpose?
Is it all pre determined?
Does it all mean anything?

'Cause it's just one of those things
Where I don't know what I want
But when I stop and think
It's been good all along
Is there a version of me who did things differently?
And if you're out there, I wonder

Did you find a man who loves you half as good as mine loves me
Did your family become your best friends, like mine turned out to be
Did you find a way to let go of all the pain you don't deserve
Are you happy is it better, is it worse
In a parallel universe
In a parallel universe
(In a parallel universe)
(In a parallel universe)

Ain't it funny how we all end up with things we'd wanna change
Embarrassed of our stories, holding on to all the shame
And if they figured out a way for me to go and talk to her
It's probably better and it's probably kinda worse
In a parallel universe
