Milo - A Binary Abacus lyrics

[Verse 1] We played hopscotch on the riverbed Long pulls of liquor till your liver's dead It's been too long since I used my falsetto If my mind was a neighborhood it would be the ghetto Into the Wild for the thousandth time And I am celebrating life with a child's mind My sweater got snagged on the witch-hazel Wonder if my heart's the same shape as this red bud Body full of tingles like I slept with some bed bugs Galaxies for eyes makes me feel infinitesimal My own system of numbers are regular s**agesimal You can't crunch those digits on a binary abacus Struggling to mutter three words I'm very bad at this There's too much dirt under my finger nails You don't know how liberating it feels to fail To know these old bones are brittle and frail I've been in the woods and seen the sterility of a blank night And felt it cold cruelty cut deep like a shank knife When these ugly ghosts take a seat at breakfast I make it a point to use my napkin and not act reckless My long legs feel just like trombones Why are all my memories archived in sepia tones [Refrain] Which of these trees is a tamarack? How deep will its roots grow? When its leaves fall, I hope they fall slow And when it's dark, I will strip its bark down I may not be a whole thing but I'm a part now [x4]
