Sia Furler - Academia
текст песни

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 to down
And you will measure my footsteps
As I pleasure this town
The mean of our heights is divided by the nights
Which is timed by the daggers in the root of all our fights

The pass of your poem is to sway me in your knowing
And the beauty of the word is that you don't have to show it

[Chorus:]
Oh Academia, you can 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 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'm sitting here drawing circles I'm afraid of being hurt

[Chorus]

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 is over analyzed 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'm four words then
I am needing of your love.

[Chorus]

Oooh Academia...
