You can be my alphabet and I will be your calculator |
And together we’ll work out on the escalator |
I will time you as you run up the down |
And you’ll measure my footsteps as I blow through this town |
The mean of our heights is divided by the nights |
Which is times’d by the daggers and the route of all our fights, |
The pass of your poem is to swathe me in your knowing |
And the beauty of the word is that you don’t have to show it |
Oh academia you can’t pick me up |
Soothe me with your words when I need your love |
I am a dash and you are a dot |
When will you see that I am all that you’ve got |
I’m a binary code that you cracked long ago |
But to you I’m just a novel that you wish you’d never wrote |
I’m greater than x and lesser than y, so why is it |
That I still can’t catch your eye? |
You’re a cryptic crossword, a song I’ve never heard |
While I sit here drawing circles I’m afraid of being hurt |
Oh academia you can’t pick me up |
Soothe me with your words when I need your love |
You’re a difficult equation with a knack for heart evasion |
Will you listen to my proof or will you add another page on |
It appears to me the graph has come and stolen all the laughs |
It appears to me the pen has over analysed again |
And if I am a number I’m infinity plus one |
And if you are five words you are afraid to be the one |
And if you are a number you’re infinity plus one |
And if I am four words then I am needing of your love |
Oh academia you can’t pick me up |
Soothe me with your words when I need your love |
