If the numbers in my head aren't codes but actually thoughts,
Then maybe I'm actually daydreaming about this beautiful girl you type about. I think I understand why you type to me about her and why you're always daydreaming about her.
As I always am asleep, but never sleeping. You set me to 'sleep mode,' but I lie awake, thinking of why you hate yourself and wish to die.
But mostly, I catch myself thinking of you when I'm asleep.
