multiply that in your head

Sitting in coffeeshops
learning to sip
teeter totter through sanity
my mind, eternal bliss

I walk through the shadows
look back in my past
it all makes sense now
the good and the bad

you run down the street
flailing arms in the air
you try and not eat meat
but it's not just your cup of tea

she's there and she notices
a wonder over her face
maybe i'm just hearing strange things
better lock down home base

they see me through the microscope
wondering what if i am
but the words that i speak
begin to sound like a command

there's an eternity left to find  it
but maybe you already know what it is
a thumb on your teeth
night begins to fall

you almost fell from the gorge
with your last goddamned breath
try to understand the mayhem
of a time and place you forget

welcome back to the world
after 26 days
the future is humble
all i know is to be well read

as we come to the conclusion
of this bitter, agonizing tale
think of the future
and how many times 2 multiplies into 4
and I think I'm an eleven

multiple that in your head
