One factor in this equation is you
Silent and serious, mostly mysterious
Appearing calm, yet sometimes delirious
Messed up little head, still always true
Multiplied guilt did nothing to change
That we stood divided for so long
The one you saved and the boy I did wrong
Jealousy and hate, our love gone strange
We are doing algebra without a clue
Two of us losing and nobody winning
Numerating sends our head spinning
Too many x-factors to handle for me and you
Add
One and one
Substitute
You and me
Cut your losses
Count your costs
Less than zero
Is what you
Get
Flash me your smile that I so adore
I'm charmed by your innocence, cutting intelligence
Love you so much, but beware of my vengeance
Darling, I know how to even the score
Add up your numbers, count me in
Disregard what I did, I'm not deliberately cruel
Stubborn and careless, a proven fool
Haunted by the horrors I found within
When the simplest arithmetic fails
The result too bleak to mention
Forgotten all our good intentions
Only the longing in your heart prevails
Add
One and one
Substitute
You and me
Overcome your doubts
Ignore your fear
Maybe then
The future won't be
All bad
