I can't get these numbers
Out of my head
A mathematical equation
For insanity or dread

I felt peace in quiet
Tranquility
Because your words
Seemed to interrupt me

I cannot seem to memorize
Your face
It is truly
A sin in grace

Shes standing in front of me
Shes quite a fight
I see her dwindle
She is an an argument at sight

These numbers are taking over again
I'm done with being exhausted
But that's easily said

Her smile leaves traces
Like detailed trails
Her demeanor
Mind as well leave me impaled

I'm slowly trying to
Let her know
I cannot do anything
That is my vow

I hear her again
I feel like seeing her face
But I'm scared
I'll plead no case

She is the numbers in my head
I keep finding her there
In the pit of my stomach
Underneath of my bed

She is the water
Running down the drains
She is the caffeine
Eating away at my veins

She is my voice when it tremors
My nervous space
She is my hands when they shake
When they can't find a place

She is the number
She will always be that number
Because shes not in my head
It's numbers that I dread

What if nothing adds up?
