lyrics

Numbers counting down the digits till we meet
One hundred shapes of math stomping to the beat
You stole the patterns I rightfully knit piece by piece
Numbers tripping down the highway at my feet

Bring it down, I watched you hanging artwork beneath their ribs
They’re just boys, they want love, they want it now, they don’t care much for your worn out lips

And if you don’t leave now I’ll go find where my heart is

Numbers caped like pretty girls and four letter words
Two hundred miles of riddles marching to the world
You know the past I’ve fought behind these cheap tattoos
Numbers calmly sailing up the street next to you

Let her be, I watched you break her walls to let him in
They’re just boys, they want it all, you’ll make them crawl, they want every kind of pretty, easy, skin

And if you don’t leave now I’ll go find where my heart is
It’s far from here
