Long Division

I saw algebra in your eyes
Geometry between the lies
I saw my image of you fade
In exponential waves of gray
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh I’ll go
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh I know
I should have figured it
Don’t give me degrees
I’ve been at the seaport all day long
Just me and my paint box abstracting numbers in the sun
Good-bye bye bye
In long division
I saw my image of you fade
In exponential waves of gray
I saw my favorite number two
Get crushed, divided in squares
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh I’ll go
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh I know
I should have figured it
Don’t give me degrees
I’ve been at the seaport all day long
Just me and my paint box abstracting numbers in the sun
Good-bye bye bye
Bye bye bye
Bye bye bye
In long division
