If someone else asks about my major
I'll take a warm bath with a toaster
If someone else asks about my resume
I think I'll spray myself with mace
I'll breathe in sober, smokeless airways
Pull and hold and caffeinate
Instant gratifying addiction
Insecure high maintenance machines
It's the fear
That you're wrong
It creeps into your bones
And it fills up your lungs
And I'm here
But you're gone
And I'll count on my fingers
But my math is all wrong
If someone else asks me why I never sleep
I think I'll test my faith and leap
If someone else asks me to explain myself
Am I just the sum of all my fears and faults
And everything I've made or lost?
A new day is an opportunity
To prove I can be happy here
It's the fear
That you're wrong
It creeps into your bones
And it fills up your lungs
And I'm here
But you're gone
And I'll count on my fingers
But my math is all wrong
